How to get back the current count of a auto incrementing number.
hi
How to get the current value of a auto
incrementing number generated using CREATE SEQUENCE
seqname START 1
Is there any way and if yes what is it. Can we run a
select query and may be a inbuilt function which will
return the current value of that number?
Regards.

Sid,
Postgres has an excellent documentation. You can find about what you
asked here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.0/static/functions-sequence.html
It always pays off to read the docs first.
Cheers,
Csaba.

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)

This question pops about once a day...
can't the list server grep for "auto increment" and send a link to the
docs itself ;)
