Ah, you misunderstood what I meant by "in your bizobj". I meant that in
your bizobj code, you would call 'self.getPK()'. Outside of your bizobj, such
as in your form code, you'd have to use a reference to the bizobj. E.g.:
def afterSave(self):
newPK = self.PrimaryBizobj.getPK()
dabo.ui.info("Record successfully saved. Your new number is DC10-
%s" % newPK, title="Success")
self.new()
self.BuilderName.setFocus()

Since this is form code, and your form doesn't have a getPK() method,
most likely Python threw an AttributeError on the call to self.getPK(). Fix the
reference, and it should work.

I've worked for many clients who made claims like "we will never need
more than one phone number per customer" or "part numbers will never be more
than 4 places" or "640K will be enough for anyone". (OK, that last one wasn't
from one of my clients!).
Assuming single-year tables sure sounds like a premature optimization
to me, and one that could limit the application later on.
