Just to double check, do we underline all keys or primary keys only? |

Hopefully I'm not wrong, but my understanding is that on the ER diagram you underline keys. Keys meaning any unique attribute (relative to the entity set).
In a database schema design, you only underline the primary key(s).
If your table is in BCNF, generally the keys underlined will be the same in both cases anyways. |

Well, that's not quite right. We only underline the primary key in both ER diagram and relational schema. |
