Do you have DBI installed? What have you tried? Can we see some code? AFAIK, you can't directly retrieve the value of a sequence... The only way I've ever used sequences is by setting something to either net_seq.currval or net_seq.nextval - if there is a way to directly get the current value with a select statement, I don't know the syntax for it...
