I know this should be easy (I think), but I can not figure out how to do
it.
Basically, I have 4 tables (2 tables with 2 subordinate tables) that
have an INQ_ID key that was created by using "Auto-increment".
(What I mean by 4 tables is that I have 2 "Main" tables with a
subordinate table tied to each of them.)
Now, I have to merge these tables so that I only have 2 tables (the data
is the same, the tables were created at different times, so, the
"Auto-increment" for the INQ_ID is overlapping).
This is basically my problem, I have about 20,000 records that the
INQ_ID overlaps. I need to figure out a way to change ONE of the tables
(and its subordinate table) so that the INQ_IDs are in a different range
of numbers so that when I merge the 4 tables (2 main, 2 subordinate),
the INQ_ID will not overlap.
I know I am not explaining it very well, but if there is any
clarification needed, just post the clarification question, and I will
follow it up ASAP because I really need to fix this (redundant to have 2
separate tables with the same fields in the database).
Thanks for any help,
Reaper
