Hi. Is there a way to make a serial columm that works with father table??? I.e: I have created a table called "vending" and its chield table called "items". The items table have a serial columm, but I need the serial colum starts with 0 for each vending.
create table vending ( id serial primary key, --Ok, this serial: 0 - 9999xxx date_ date ); create table items ( vending_id references vending, items_id serial, -- THIS SERIAL NEED to start 0 for each vending_id primary key (vending_id,items_id) ); insert into vending values (1,now()); insert into vending values (2,now()); insert into items values (1); insert into items values (1); insert into items values (2); insert into items values (2); select * from items; vending_id | items_id 1 | 1 1 | 2 2 | 3 <<=== Here! The items_id need to be 1 (start again for each vending_id) 2 | 4 <<== Thanks all. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
