Hi,

I am new to SQL and SQL management Studio

I write the following code in the SQL query pane

ALTER TABLE TransAct
{
ALTER COLUMN OrderNo AUTO_INCREMENT
};

I get an incorrect syntax error - what is wrong with the statement?

Each record now updated in the table will have no OrderNo data imported to it - now instread i want it to increment itself on each row being added.

How is this done correct?

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks
Ciaran

No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.
