does it all have to be in the same field? can you not just combine two
fields?
one field would be called 'id' and it would be auto-incrementing.
second field would be 'state' and it would contain the two letter
abbreviation.
i can think of a few other ways to get it all into one field, but
they're a bit less efficient. then again i'm no sql expert.
