Hi. Usually, Any AUTO_INCREMENT field in MySql table will have always an incrementing value. Now Suppose I emptied the table and then inserted one record, why not this record LAST_INSERT_ID is not '1' or '0' and why it is the lastid+1 before I empty the table? Can't I reset that pointer w/ deleting the table and creating it again? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
