You could set a default value on the column in the table design, is that what you mean?
in the column definition for the table have the phrase DEFAULT 0
create table x (col1 smallint default 0 , ....)
or
alter table x alter column x smallint default 0
Insert into x (col2,....) -- but don't name the col1
values (1,2,...) -column col1 will get the default
or Insert into x (col1,col2,...)
values (DEFAULT,1,2,...) -- using the KEYWORD DEFAULT
is that what you where asking for ? otherwise please be specific and state what you need to know understand...
create table x (col1 smallint default 0 , ....)
or
alter table x alter column x smallint default 0
Insert into x (col2,....) -- but don't name the col1
values (1,2,...) -column col1 will get the default
or Insert into x (col1,col2,...)
values (DEFAULT,1,2,...) -- using the KEYWORD DEFAULT

use alter table to create a constraint
alter table emp2
add constraint MyColumnDefX default (1) for MyColumn
