Hi all,

As I am learning MySQL at the moment, I have some questions from time to 
time:

1. Do you need a PRIMARY KEY in every table?

2. If I give a row the AUTO_INCREMENT option, is it possible to start 
with a certain number (let's say 1000 instead of 1)?

3. If I need a Boolean TYPE, what is the datatype I should use when using 
MySQL. I have noticed that MySQL hasn't got BOOLEAN, so what is the best 
replacement?

Thanks for help.

Michael.
