I'd start by reading the manual and documentation for the database
application being used. But, generally, auto incremented fields are
primary keys, unsigned, not null integers. For MySQL, in particular,
you define a field as auto increment by using AUTO_INCREMENT. Again,
you can see the manual for more.
