Hello is it possible to save the deleted auto incremented primary key in my database. For example
I have
Name_ID
If I delete primary key 4 and I insert again the primary key of I inserted should be four.
so. Name 1 2 3 4 5
I deleted primary key 5 (Name 1 2 3 4)
I added a data primary key should be 5 again not 6. THANKS!
Auto generated fields always have gaps in these cases.
What if you have an audit or history table that stored the rows with ID = 4, ID = 5? Then delete them again? How do you differentiate rows?
In your example, you’ve only deleted the last row? What is you delete ID = 1? Then what?
That is, they are just internal numbers unique to that table (and any associated tables like audit ones): no external meaning should be attached
