How to mintain ref integrity when you change the primary keys?

I've creatd an ADO.NET app that reads from an MS Access database and I like to modify the primary keys of all the data tables before copying them over to another DB server. When you change the primary keys on a parent table what is the best way to to update the referential integrity to the related child table?

Thanks,

Andrew
