I am wondering if something like the following will work in mySQL: ALTER TABLE `stats` ADD `visits` INT( 25 ) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY FIRST ORDER BY `initial_access` ASC This particular syntax won't work though. initial_access is a column that contains a unix timestamp. I am trying to get the auto_increment value to be added in order of sequence of when the visits occurred. Thank you.
