The LASTID is the ID that is in the thread at the time the thread is committing the transaction to the database. So it may not be the same when you are trying to display it as opposed to when you are actually committing the transaction, as there might have been a search or something between that time and the commit and the LASTID will have the ID of the last record that was referenced before the commit.

I am able to display the $LASTID$ using a Filter but when I try to assign the value to a Character Field I get some different set of numbers stored in it. Is there any work-around to assign the value to a field using a Filter? Kindly check and advice.
