Hi Riaan.!
i think that is a better solution, to use the postgres native type
"serial", that it is a autoincremental number type. You can see it
on the postgres manual. It's very usefull because of you only need to
redifine the type of your id vars. For example, on this moment you
have
CREATE TABLE test ( name varchar(50), id int );
insert into test values ('prueba',newid);
On postgres you can resplace thoses
CREATE TABLE test ( name varchar(50), id serial primary key);
insert into test values ('prueba');
Serial type create automatically a sequence asocited to id. and always
you insert something using its default value, the serial id
autoincrements its value.
thanks , i have not a good english but i try to help !
