[RESOLVED] Dynamically create autonumber / boolean field in Access 2003

I'm using Access 2003 with a VB 2005 front end.

I have this code written to dynamically create a table in an access database:

Code:

---


                    DBCommand.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE Item(" & _
                    "ItemID Varchar(255) NOT NULL UNIQUE," & _
                    "ItemName Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemDesc Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemCat Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemType Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemQty Integer NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemWarn Integer NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemVendor Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemVisible Varchar(255) DEFAULT 'Yes' NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemUnit Varchar(255) NOT NULL," & _
                    "ItemOrdered Varchar(255) DEFAULT 'No' NOT NULL," & _
                    "PRIMARY KEY (ItemID));"

                    DBCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()

---

The above code works.

However, for obvious reasons, I wouldn't want a field such as "ItemVisible" or "ItemOrdered" to be a string, I'd prefer to use a yes/no field. They're only varchar at the moment because I can't make this command work any other way.

So, this brings me to my question: What does the command need to be in order to dynamically create a yes/no (boolean) field in an Access DB?

Also, what does the command have to be to dynamically create an autonumber field in the database?

I've looked quite a bit on the internet, and I can't find any examples of this. And my book from class only has some basic examples using text/number fields. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

For Boolean use Bit, and for AutoNumber I think you need use Integer with a constraint:

Ah yes, Bit. Lol, I've been sitting here trying to think of all the different synonyms for Boolean, that one alluded me.

Also, I finally found that you can use "Counter" as a way to specify Autonumber.

Thank you very much for your help.
