Hi *
How can reset a auto_incremet collumn so it starts from 1
TIA 2 10210
I came across this same problem in Paul DuBois's excellent book MySQL, pp.
142 - 143. The process is to drop the auto_increment column and then add it
back again:
ALTER TABLE table
DROP column,
ADD column INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT NOT NULL,
AUTO_INCREMENT = 1;

Hey,
I was wondering if it's possible to reset the "auto_increment" feature in
MySQL. For example, if I have a database with a list that will change
every year (the old list be completely flushed out, deleted) and then I
insert a new list, it will very quickly reach the max INDEX length... Does
it just wrap itself? Is there a way to reset "auto_increment" so that I
can flush all the rows, reset auto_increment, and start from scratch?

Hi,
i want to create a unique serial number to my Db entries. I thought
the best way would be to add the auto_increment primary key value to a
string, then insert it into a table field 'serial_num'.
$serial_num = "NAME000" . $auto_increment_value;
Is this possible in one function? Or do I have to insert all the other
data first, then get the last inserted id value and then update the

Hello,
The first column of my table is AUTO_INCREMENT.
I fill my table with 5 records with a blanco value in their first
field.
The first column of my table will then hold the values 1,2,3,4,5
(top>down).
Then I erase those 5. Then I add a new record with a blanco first
value. It will get number 6.

I made a MyISAM table on mysql 4.0.18 NT with auto_increment column
started at 2147483646. The third row I insert fails as expected
because the integer range is maxed out. However, if I delete the
topmost row, and then re-insert a row, the topmost value is reused.
This contradicts the documentation.

Hi, how can I add char to auto_increment? For example, the
auto_increment is for integer, I want to add a character at the front
of that number. Ex:
>create table abs (UserID INT(3) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, name
varchar(15),
primary key(UserID));
>insert into abs(name) VALUES ('Elton'), ('Andy'), ('Peter');
>select * from abs;

Newbie questions here...
Reading the MySQL manual regarding InnoDB databases, can someone confirm
that:
1. if the server is rebooted, AUTO_INCREMENT reverts back to 1?
2. what happens if the field is specified as or PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE?
Cheers
Phil

I've got an index field which stores id numbers which are created by auto_incrementing and assigning that value as the id. ive already emptied out the values a few times since I'm testing, but I can't seem to figure out how to reset a field set to auto_increment, so that the next time someone registers an account, their ID will be set to 1 and it will rise from then forward.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
