I'm afraid that's incorrect.   What you have is a "two-column primary
key."   There is no "secondary key".   Here's how you create one:

create table order_detail (
    order_no INT NOT NULL REFERENCES orders(order_no),
    record_no INT NOT NULL,
    item_no INT NOT NULL REFERENCES inventory(item_no),
    quantity NUMERIC NOT NULL,
    comment TEXT,
    CONSTRAINT order_detail_PK PRIMARY KEY (order_no, record_no)
);

Got it?   Read the "CREATE TABLE" documentation for more detail.

P.S. To reiterate:  There are Primary Keys, Candidate Keys, Surrogate
Keys, and Foreign Keys, but no "Secondary Keys".
