Adding a new column

  I have a table with data in it, and Im trying to add another column to it.
Im executing ->
ALTER TABLE search_content ADD COLUMN faq_id VARCHAR(33);
then
alter table search_content alter column faq_id set default '' not null;

Im getting an error ->
ERROR:  parser: parse error at or near "null"

If I take out not null, the sql works but I need the column to be "not null"

What am I doing wrong???
Thanks
