Subject Autonumeric columns
Author Flores José
Hello,

I'm moving to Firebird



At MS SQL i have an option to create autonumeric columns

With this: IDENTITY (seed, increment )

Where seed

Is the value that is used for the very first row loaded into the table.

increment

Is the incremental value that is added to the identity value of the previous
row that was loaded.

CREATE TABLE myTable (EmployeeID int IDENTITY (1,1) not null primary key,
EmployeeName varchar(50))

INSERT myTable (EmployeeName) values ('Employee one')

INSERT myTable (EmployeeName) values ('Employee two')



When I do: SELECT * FROM myTable

I obtain

EmployeeID EmployeeName

------------- ------------------

1 Employee one

2 Employee two

....



How can I do the same with Firebird?



Thank you.
