Hi How would one goabout creating an empty record (for use in relations). Eg create table product( productid SERIAL NOT NULL, product TEXT, PRIMARY KEY(productid) ); create table product_billable( productid INT4 NOT NULL, billaddress TEXT, PRIMARY KEY (productid), FOREIGN KEY (productid) REFERENES product(productid) ON DELETE CASCADE ); All fields except for the primary key can be NULL. What if I wanted to add a new billable product but I have not got a name for it yet? So how could I insert a new record in product that can be used in product_billable? I have tried INSERT INTO product() VALUES(); but as expected it did not work. All help appreciated Best regards Per-Olof Pettersson
