Equivalent for AUTOINCREMENT?

Hello,

I have a table where I have a serialnumber which shuld be  increased  be
each INSERT.  I know I can use max() to get the highest number, but  how
can I use it in a INSERT statement?

There was a message for some month a message describing it on this  list
but I do not find the message anymore...

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
