Hello NG, I have to migrate a postgres database to a mysql data- base. There are some problems applying this. How can I implement a reference in phpmyadmin between two fields from two different tables, so that the two fields of the two different tables have the same values? And when I have to fill the two tables by using the insert into command, which values of the referenced fields do I have to take using the insert into command? The primary key, auto_increment field of the first table do not need a value by building the insert into command like postgres doing it by sequences. The autoincrementation of this field is working fine for me. But the other referenced field of my table two?
In my postgres database, the value of the insert into command of the table 2 is currval(sequence).There are severally such insert into commands back-to-back: insert into table1 (authorid, lastname, firstname) values (nextval('s_authors'), 'Meyers', 'Scott'); insert into table2 (authorid, title, subtitle) values (currval('s_authors'), 'Effektiv C++ Programmieren', '50 Wege zur Verbesserung Ihrer Programme und Entwuerfe'); How to in mysql?
