hello friends

thanks for supporting me...

again I have one query

I have created table through this query

     create table t_au ( tid numeric(18) NOT NULL
        primary key,tname varchar(4));

     insert into t_au
        values( select ZEROIFNULL(MAX(tid))+ 1 from t_au , 'WWW' );

i m finding max no from t_au table and incrementing if it is null then it starts form 1 and inserting into the same table .

I got this exception

     com.ncr.teradata.jdbc_4.util.JDBCException: [NCR] [Teradata DBMS] :
     Syntax error, expected something like ')' between '(' and the 'select' keyword.

is it wrong or teratada is not supporting insert ..select..on same table

Thanks in Advance
