This is something I have been thinking about, and was just curious about.

I noticed that the objectid always is a alphanumeric string, how come the 
objectid is not just a number like 220 or 189.

Looking at the database it seems all objects are referenced from the refobjects 
table, so it seems possible to do, I am just not sure why it's not (perhaps a 
design issue I have been missing).

Personally I have always used plain numeric values for all primary keys in my 
tables, as a computer can compare and processes a number faster than it can a 
string of characters.

Just trying to understand FarCry more.

Thanks,
