Re: Re: extending the mdb schema format

Hi Lukas: Your points here and in your subsequent messages are pretty much right on. I notcied you didn't mention PostgreSQL. As you probably know, while you can't define a column auto-increment, one can define a sequence then define the column to use the next value in the sequence. > Optionally I could also see allowing an integer value to specify a > starting value. 0 would still be false and 1 would equate to true (and > the default starting value is 1 anyways) and any integer higher than 1 > would be the wanted starting value. I think there are some DBMS' will need to be set to n-1 in order to actually spit out n when requested. --Dan -- T H E A N A L Y S I S A N D S O L U T I O N S C O M P A N Y data intensive web and database programming http://www.AnalysisAndSolutions.com/ 4015 7th Ave #4, Brooklyn NY 11232 v: 718-854-0335 f: 718-854-0409
