Kevin Visitor	All the tables already have an id which is auto-incremented by default. This field does not show by default. If you want it to be displayed just drag the root of the table into the grid and you will be able to see it

denderli Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 2 Thank you received: 0	Thank you for the quick reply. I see what you are referring to. My error was trying to create all database table fields prior to making any form fields. Knowing this now, development should go pretty fast. This is an excellent tool!

Kevin Visitor	I had the same issue when I started. You can add or remove database fields as and when you need them and update the forms as you go. Takes a little getting use to but I agree it's a great tool, and getting better all the time. Don't forget to add [SOLVED] to the title of your first post if your happy it is resolved

[SOLVED] Primary Key with Auto-Increment

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
