Hello! I have the following code that creates a table structure. How do I give Age a default value of 0

[CODE]
mysql_select_db(“DB”, $connection);
$sql = “CREATE TABLE Person
(
Name text,
Age text,
Sex text
)”;[/CODE]

@trymbillNov 16.2007 — First of, why not use varchar for name and sex and int for age? Using text for everything is not clever ?

But for your question, just add "default '0'" after "Age text" so it looks like:

[code=php]mysql_select_db("DB", $connection);
$sql = "CREATE TABLE Person
(
Name text,
Age text default '0',
Sex text
)";[/code]

Success!
