    Create a unique key column:

    CREATE TABLE X
    (
        ID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREASE NOT NULL,
        A INTEGER,
        B INTEGER,
        UNIQUE KEY(A, B)
    );
    
    INSERT INTO X(A, B) VALUES(1, 2);
    INSERT INTO X(A, B) VALUES(2, 2);
    INSERT INTO X(A, B) VALUES(1, 3);
    INSERT INTO X(A, B) VALUES(2, 3);
    INSERT INTO X(A, B) VALUES(1, 2);
    

    The last line will fail because the combination a = 1 and b = 2 already exists in the table.
