For those of you thinking about using this new feature, here's some information you need to have that the docs don't provide.
We set the Next ID blocking level at 100 at the Server level, which the manuals say is only a default value. NOTHING in the docs indicates that this turns ON blocking for ALL forms, which makes sense, since there is no reason anyone would want to do it on the vast majority of forms. The docs say (or at least imply, and Support has stated nothing to the contrary yet) that the value set at the server level can be overridden at the form level, but only where the box is checked indicating that you wish to have blocking used on that form. Otherwise, it is supposed to be ignored. We had the nextID blocking enabled at the form level on a few select forms. However, the blocking was happening on all forms, even those where the check box enabling it was not checked. The only way we were able to turn it off for those forms was to remove the default value from the server configuration file, and reference it only at the form level in every way. This is at least a documentation bug, and perhaps a product one. Hopefully, Support will be able shed a bit more light on it, and if/when they do, I'll pass it along. Caveat Emptor.
