create sequence

[jdavis]

hello,
 I have mysql version 4.0.16. I am trying to create a sequence to use
for a customer_id field. Anyway I try this ...

CREATE SEQUENCE "new_num" start 1 increment 1 maxvalue
9223372036854775807 minvalue 1 cache 1;

or just

CREATE SEQUENCE "new_num";

and both give me a sytax error. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
