I'm trying to create at table that inserts a default value into a field if nothing is supplied. If in interpret the documentation correctly this should be accomplished by something like this:
CREATE TABLE Location (LocationID VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, Name VARCHAR(50), Address1 VARCHAR(50), Address2 VARCHAR(50), City VARCHAR(50), State VARCHAR(50), Zip VARCHAR(10), Phone VARCHAR(20), Email VARCHAR(50), URL VARCHAR(75) , Icon INT DEFAULT 1) Where the Icon field will get set to 1 if no value is supplied upon insert. When I insert a row such as: INSERT INTO LocationTEMP VALUES (100,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,'') zero (0) gets inserted in the Icon field. It appears DEFAULT doesn't work.
