Hey everyone...

I was curious if anyone could tell me how to automatically generate Unique numbers (for a primary Key) in Dbase. We already have the database populated, but the guy that usually works with it is not around. We know how to load all of the other data, using sub queries and such (loading from one table to another) but aren't sure how to obtain the next unique number.

Any help would be great.

Thanks
Kevin
