I'm trying to define my files using SQL, and immediately hitting a snag
because I can't seem to define an id field with AUTO_INCREMENT like I've
done a million times elsewhere.

If I have to use triggers or something strange to implement this concept,
could someone please get me jumpstarted with an example? Thanks.
