Help with T4 and Schema Information

Question

Hello,

I am trying to create a data access layer using t4 and C#. I would like to be able to provide a DAL where I can access any database. The problem I am having is with some of the schema information. I am able to retrieve some information like column and table names but I would also like other information like the name of the primary key field, the primary key value. What's the most efficient way of doing this?
