How to set up a table where 2 columns together must be unique?

Hi all!

I want to create a table:

user_id: bigserial
user_name: text
user_company: text
password: text

How do I build this table so that user_name+user_ company must be unique?
This way there can be only one of a given username for a given company name
but there can be more than one of a given username if they are with different
companies.

TIA,
Scott

TIP 9: the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your
joining column's datatypes do not match

I have a "source" table that is being populated by a DTS bulk import of a text file.

The problem is that table "Companies" needs to be populated first in order to generate the Identity ID and then use that as the foreign key in the other table. Here is the DDL: CREATE TABLE . (

Hi all, Following Ian's passionate postings on problems with ALTOBJ and the alter table wizard in the control center I'll try to explain how to use ALTOBJ with this thread.

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: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
