For a while my application should support both mysql 4 and 5 ( teh same copy on different sites of course ) so I should keep using a soluting wich should works well on both revision. I also have a couple of server with their database configured as master slave, so I don't trust to use autoincrement. When I can leave ther revision 4 at all I think to use the autoincrement using a trigger and mybe something like the oracle sequence .
regards, Enzo Mysql 5 is much more picky on things you shouldnt have been able to do in the first place.. Just change idrow to auto_increment and stop doing max.. Its not needed. innodb properly handles auto_increment now.
