Primary RNA transcript?

[Billy Li]

A simple question from a non-biologist.  When a DNA sequence is transcripted
to a primary RNA transcript, is the coding strand being duplicated directly
to form the RNA transcript, or is the non-coding strand being complemented
to form the RNA transcript?

Thanks in advance.
