Auto increment table column

Question

Using Postgres, I\'m trying to use AUTO_INCREMENT to number my primary key automatically in SQL. However, it gives me an error.

CREATE TABLE Sta         


        

Answer 1

In the SQL server database you can use Identity(1,1) like this:

CREATE TABLE Staff
(
    ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
    Name VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (ID)
);
