| I've got a table.MyTable (oldPK, NewPK, Name)We've recently restructured several of our tables to use a new primary key. I want to be able to select data using the oldPK column but I no longer want to allow inserts into that column.Is there a way to disable the column? I was thinking of marking it as unused however that will remove any chance of selecting / restoring that historical data.Update ** I also thought about maybe trying to make the column ReadOnly.. Can this be done without using a trigger/job? |

| One more option is to use a view that excludes oldPK and use that for insertion. To query using oldPK use the actual tableMadhivananFailing to plan is Planning to fail |
