CREATE SEQUENCE ?
Tracing some examples in a book from Apress,
for some reason they go for Oracle in this book -
not my cup of tea, especially not when I am sitting on
a vista-terminal. Enough of my complaing.
How do I create a sequence in mysql ?
This is the example I am stuck with:
CREATE SEQUENCE SEQ_ID_GEN INCREMENT BY 1 START WITH 100 MINVALUE 1 CACHE 50 ;
How do I write that sentence in mysql ?

Create A Sequence?
I am creating an application that will contain three tables that need to share the same sequence. Upon digging through the docs, I do not see how I could do this. Could someone give me some guidance into this? Also, As I read the docs, when I am creating tables, there is something about an InnoDB? Sorry to be confused, but I am not sure how to begin creating my database, nor tables without this knowledge.

How To Create A Sequence In MySQL
I am not able to create a sequence in MYSQL 5.0 Want help on creating the same. Basically, what I am looking for is, that I should get a number greater that the last one on every call to this sequence. In Oracle, one can simply write something like:- CREATE SEQUENCE seq_ordermaster increment by 1 start with 1 maxvalue 999999minvalue 1 nocache Nocycle; And while calling, one can use it by selecting seq_ordermaster.nextval from DUAL Considering the fact that there is no DUAL table in MySQL, how can One write such a sequence and also, how one can get the next value on each select statement?

Create Sequence Syntex Errors Out
I installed mysql 5 and trying to setup database. Somehow it can't create sequence. it throws generic 'check the manual that corresponds to your mysql server version......'. I have tried just about anything nothing works. Also tried to reinstall mysql few times--same thing. Also tried to go through mysql 5 manual nothing is in there for sequence. Or sequence is not supported with mysql version i have?

Disrupted Sequence
Another brainteaser: CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `test` ( `id` INT(11) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, `cid` VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, `item` VARCHAR(10) NOT NULL, `val` INT(11) NOT NULL, `dt` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00', PRIMARY KEY (`id`) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 AUTO_INCREMENT=1 In the above example table I need to find the first 5 highest values of val that break the sequential set of values. In other words: say I have values 49,48,45,44,43,40,39,37,36,34 of val in my table, with 49 being the highest value of val (need to sorted first, because values may randomly be dispersed in my table), then I want to get 47,46,42,41,38 as the query result.

Sequence Substitute
I have a problem about create sequence number which can be reset after MAXVALUE has been assigned. In the older version of mysql i can use "create sequence", but in the recent version i can't do that anymore. All i know in mysql ver 5 is "Auto_increment" which cannot be reset number without delete or truncate table.

What Collation Sequence?
I've just transferred a small PHP/MySQL application from a Firepages phpdev5 install to an XAMPP install, so I've got new versions of everything. I used phpMyAdmin to export and import the tables of the database. When recreating the database on my new install I selected the default collation (latin1_general_ci) but my application is now displaying ? in place of a number of characters so I guess I got it wrong. I can't see where in the old phpMyAdmin (2.3.0-rc3) to determine what collation the database uses.

Identity, Sequence, Serial
Does MySQL offer capability for any of the following? - IDENTITY - SEQUENCE - SERIAL Or is AUTO_INCREMENT the catch-all for the functionality of all of the above? I ask because I'm looking into Java EJB3 which describes support for any of the above (as well as AUTO_INCREMENT, so I'm not out of luck completely).

Re-arrange Primary Key Sequence
i am facing a problem with my application when someone deletes a record and hence its key disappears breaking the sequence e.g 1 - entry 2 - entry (3 - deleted no mere here) 4 - entry 5 - entry When key is not there my AJAX application fails to run properly due to not finding next id. Is there any method to re-arrange primary key values to a proper sequence when one or more numbers are missing?so that i will write a query and whenever user deletes an item i will re-arrange the primary key sequence automatically

Mysql Execution Sequence
I need to retrieve the last value from a column in a mysql table, perform some actions on it, then add 1 to the original value and store a new entry. I am worried that if multiple users access the database at the same time I will end up with duplicated 'new values'. Does mysql complete execution of a script before it allows access to another user or do I need to 'lock' the table in some way while the script executes?

Generated Sequence # Based Upon Content Of Row Being Inserted
I have a table - CREATE TABLE `sample` ( `Id` smallint(6) NOT NULL auto_increment, `division` varchar(5) NOT NULL, `secion` varchar(5) NOT NULL, `div_sect_seq` smallint(6) NOT NULL default '1', PRIMARY KEY (`Id`) ); I'd like to write the insert statement that would generate the next div_sect_seq number based upon the value being inserted into the table. Let's say that the table contains: |--id--|-division-|-section-|-div_sect_seq-| | 1 | SC | XX | 000001 | | 2 | SC | YY | 000001 | | 3 | SC | XX | 000002 | I'd like to insert a row for divsion = 'SC' and section = 'XX' with the next div_sect_seq (which would be the max value of div_sec_seq + 1 on the sample table for the division and section) which should be the value of 000003.

CREATE
I am going to be creating accounts for my database, and want some advice on how to set up my table. so my SQL will be something like: CREATE TABLE account ( account_id int unsigned not null auto_increment primary key, first_name varchar(20), last_name varchar(20), username varchar(20), password varchar(10), role_id int, creation_date TIMESTAMP); Here are my questions: 1) How can I get the creation_date to be automatically stuck in the table during the insert, rather than explicitly setting it? Is there a way to do this in MySQL? 2) role_id is the primary key of another table. Is there any way to specially indicate this? should it be an unsigned int? 3) username should be unique and not be allowed to be duplicated. Is there any way to enforce this criteria on inserts or updates?

Create A Foreign Key
why I should explicitly create a foreign key, especially if i'm not concerned with Cascading/Deleting when a row is changed. For example, let's say I have a USERS table, with the column 'USERID' as a primary key. Other columns would be 'NAME' and 'EMAIL'. In my users table I have two rows: ["1","Joshua","test@example.com"] and ["2","Mark","mark@example.com"]. Now, let's say I have a table that records a user's favorite film (FAVEFILMS). Columns would be "FAVEID" (auto-increment key), "USERID" (indexed because we will be looking up by userID) and "FILM". In this favefilms table, let's put two rows: ["1","2","Jaws"] and ["2","1","Romancing the Stone"]. Obviously there is a relationship between the USERID in the users table and the USERID in the favefilms table, but what is the purpose of explicitly defining the USERID in the favefilms table as a foreign key? If I'm writing a select statement to find Joshua's favorite film, I would just say "SELECT FILM FROM FAVEFILMS WHERE USERID='1'". If I've indexed the UserID column as a regular index (as should be done with any column that will be used in a WHERE clause), does defining it as a foreign key add anything useful? or does NOT defining it as a foreign key create any harm? Just wondering... I mean, hey I have no problem specifying foreign keys, I was just wondering what the purpose was if I was not interested in CASCADING or DELETING when changes happen to a table.

Create A New Database
I would like to create a new database. But something has me wondering. One of the fields "keywords" has to be searchable. Let's suppose it will be a very large database, 20.000 to 50.000 records. Suppose the "keywords" field is limited to 5 keywords. Now what is the best way to do it: - one (1) field called "keywords" and separate the keywords by a comma like this: mp3,download,software,players,music - five (5) fields as follows: keyword1 with data: 'mp3' keyword2 with data: 'download' keyword3 with data: 'software' keyword4 with data: 'players' keyword5 with data: 'music' Which one would be faster? Which one would require the most server resources? What is the best way to do it?
