indicating alternate keys in Visio 2002

S

stumpedERD

In my ERD diagram, I can indicate primary keys, foreign keys, and indexes. How in the world do I indicate an alternate key? I want it to show the AK# in the left column similiar to the PK and FK that are displayed. I have tried numerous things and cannot find the way to indicate that an attribute is an alternate key. The help index says that the AK will be shown, but I can't find any information on how to identify the attribute as being an alternate key. HELP!!!

1.Double-click the Entity shape
2. Click on Primary ID
3. Select the "Generate as" drop down menu
It should show a list of keys like Primary, Alternate, Non-unique index and
No key
