I am doing a little research to see the extent in which datatables can be
used. Is it ok to use any object as the primary key of a datatable or are
there guidelines as to which objects can be used?

Thanks

I suppose you can use any "object" as a primary key as long as it is
unique.

I personally like to use fields of integer type that I can automatically
increment.
