I looked in the documentation but could not find any mention of
SEQUENCES. The AUTO_INCREMENT documentation seems to say that you
can change a server variable to adjust the incremented count, but
unless i can put an equation into their, i don't see how changing
that would help.

thanks

I was wondering whether it was possible to make and AUTO_INCREMENT
field instead of always adding 1 and starting at zero, into a SEQUENCE 
type field so that it is say a 10 digit integer and numbers are created 
according to the SEQUENCE.

I was wondering if you had tried it in a test table.
