I am trying to do one of two things. First I'd rather do this, but if not possible, then the other way that I'll describe will suffice.
1) I need to have a default value of a column named "invoice_id" be this: Column names of importance: id invoice_id id is auto_increment and BIGINT unsigned. invoice_id needs to be "gc"+ id How can I have invoice_id have that as default? in other words if it's inserting data into that table, and it's the first record, then id would = 1. So I need invoice_id to be gc1 Is that possible? 2) If 1 is not possible, then how can I get the value of id of the one I just inserted? Is it possible to get that at the same time as I insert it, so I can then UPDATE that invoice_id with the correct data? If I need to clarify this, please by all means do let me know. Thank you, kindly, Richard
