I'd go with Dominic's idea personally. From a DBA perspective I've *hated* apps that used only GUIDs for their PK... especially when I have to either manually enter data or perform manual joins. SELECT * FROM PROPERTY JOIN PICTURES ON PROPERTY.ID = PICTURES.PROPERTYID WHERE PROPERTY.ID = 928 Is lot easier than typing out a 50-odd character string.
