Yes, some do...but they shouldn't. The PK should be totally meaningless to the data. It should not be something the user has to enter, nor should it be madeup of a combination of fields. I have a KB artilce on my website that discusses this.

While we're discussing standards, I have a standards document that I've been using for sometime. I'll try to post it on my web site in the next few days.
