I have a table that is missing a column in its primary key constraint. Instead of editing it through SQL Server, I want to put this in a script to add it as part of our update scripts.
What syntax can I use to do this? Must I drop and recreate the key constraint?

Answer
Yes. The only way would be to drop the constraint with an Alter table then recreate it.
ALTER TABLE <Table_Name> DROP CONSTRAINT <constraint_name> ALTER TABLE <Table_Name> ADD CONSTRAINT <constraint_name> PRIMARY KEY (<Column1>,<Column2>)
