I have the ID column auto_incrementing and I don't want to change that.
Newbie that I am, I tried to add auto_increment to another column and
failed.
Is there any way to have a field other than the ID field increment by a
set value?
create table test (
ID mediumint(9) NOT NULL auto_increment default 0,
visitor_ID mediumint(9) NOT NULL default select 40000 + ID,
RandomData varchar(10) default null,
PRIMARY KEY (ID)
) TYPE=MyISAM;
Inserting a new record and only populating RandomData auto increments ID
as expected but visitor_ID is not incremented. How can I accomplish
this?
