Hello
Just wnated to calrify something here. If you define your id in a table to be a primary key, do you also need to define it as 'NOT NULL' and 'UNIQUE'. I've notice in some examples like the following off the mysql site: CREATE TABLE animals ( id MEDIUMINT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, name CHAR(30) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (id) ); that they say the id col is not null, but do they have to since they've already defined it to be a primary key?
