The folks on the Delphi forum haven't been responsive to this question.
Perhaps the ones that visit the forum don't know the answer.
I have created a Delphi interface to a Postgresql table containing a
serial column.
When I try to insert a new value through the interface I get an error
message that the serial field requires a value.
When I remove the serial column the interface inserts a new value with
no problem. When I insert directly via sql the serial column updates
automatically.
What am I missing to make this work through Delphi?
Try using DEFAULT as the serial value.. e.g;
INSERT INTO foo VALUES (DEFAULT, 'Hello');
Where DEFAULT is the serial column.
