I am importing a large number of records monthly using the \copy (from text file)command.
I would like to use a sequence as a unique row ID for display in my app.
Is there any way to let postgresql generate the sequence itself. Currently the only way I
can make it work is to grab the next seq value and insert my own numbers into the file
Thank You,
-Aaron Held
