Subject: Serial Auto Increment Field and Borland C Builder
Date: Mon, 26 Apr 1999 19:11:28 -0400
Message-ID: <19990426191128.A30822@Gateway.mythos.org> (raw)

Let me give a simple example of what I am trying to do:

CREATE SEQUENCE "usernumber" start 0 increment 1;

Create table users (
	name	varchar(255),
	userid	int4 DEFAULT nextval ( 'usernumber' ) NOT NULL);
);

From Borland C++ Builder I create a form with a 
link to the table "users", a navigator bar, and a DBedit object linked
to the field "userid".

When I post new record, an error is returned that "users.name" cannot be
null, which is true.

Now the question:

Is there a way to make Borland C++ Builder only
update the field "name" and let Postgresql take care of the
updating the serial field "userid"

Thanks,
	Travis
