Auto number as table id

Hi, I wish to set up a table which has a primary key of ID. This ID needs to be an auto generated number that increments by one every time a new row of data is entered into the table. I have tried setting the column to be auto_generated.

This is fine except when records in the table have been deleted and a new record is inserted the ID becomes the last available highest ID + 1 (therefore it is not unique). Is there anyway like in SQL_Server for instance you can set a column to be unique and auto incremented??

Any help much appreciated.
