How can I set a foreign key for a table in C #?

I am working on a program that creates a database and builds dimension and fact tables. I am having trouble setting up foreign keys and constraints.

Here is the actual SQL for what I am trying to do:

 CREATE TABLE FactSalesOrders
  (ProductKey int NOT NULL REFERENCES DimProduct(ProductKey),
   CustomerKey int NOT NULL REFERENCES DimCustomer(CustomerKey),
   SalespersonKey int NOT NULL REFERENCES DimSalesperson(SalepersonKey),
   OrderDateKey int NOT NULL REFERENCES DimDate(DateKey),
   OrderNo int NOT NULL,
   ItemNo int Not NULL,
   Quantity int Not NULL,
   SalesAmount money NOT NULL,
   Cost money NOT NULL
        CONSTRAINT [PK_FactSalesOrders] PRIMARY KEY NONCLUSTERED
    (
        [ProductKey],[CustomerKey],[SalespersonKey],[OrderDateKey],[OrderNo],[ItemNo]
    )
  )

      

Here is a fact table:

    //Creating Fact Table
    Table factTable = new Table(myDatabase, "Fact Table");

        //Column One: Product Key
        Column ProductKey = new Column(factTable, "ProductKey", DataType.Int);
        ProductKey.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(ProductKey);

        //Column Two: Customer Key 
        Column CustomerKey = new Column(factTable, "CustomerKey", DataType.Int);
        CustomerKey.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(CustomerKey);

        //Column Three: Sales Person Key
        Column SalespersonKey = new Column(factTable, "SalespersonKey", DataType.Int);
        SalespersonKey.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(SalespersonKey);

        //Column Four: Order Date Key
        Column OrderDateKey = new Column(factTable, "OrderDateKey", DataType.Int);
        OrderDateKey.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(OrderDateKey);

        //Column Five: Order Number
        Column OrderNo = new Column(factTable, "OrderNo", DataType.Int);
        OrderNo.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(OrderNo);

        //Column Six: Item Number
        Column ItemNo = new Column(factTable, "ItemNo", DataType.Int);
        ItemNo.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(ItemNo);

        //Column Seven: Quantity
        Column Quantity = new Column(factTable, "Quantity", DataType.Int);
        Quantity.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(Quantity);

        //Column Eight: Sales Amount
        Column SalesAmount = new Column(factTable, "SalesAmount", DataType.Money);
        SalesAmount.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(SalesAmount);

        //Column Nine: Cost
        Column Cost = new Column(factTable, "Cost", DataType.Money);
        Cost.Nullable = false;
        factTable.Columns.Add(Cost);

    factTable.Create();

      

Here is all the C # code (NOTE: the fact table is at the bottom):

Create foreign key constraint and add to child table

 ForeignKeyConstraint fk = new ForeignKeyConstraint(
        "ForeignKey", objCustomer.Columns["CustomerID"], objOrder.Columns["CustomerID"]);
    objOrder.Constraints.Add(fk);
