We are using jbase 3.4 but will upgrade soon. I would like to create a unique record id for a heavily used file without the need to read a number off a stack, lock it and increment it before writing away.
I was thinking of using PORT_DATE()_TIME() but as the user may write to this file many times within a routine TIME() SYSTEM(12) or SYSTEM (1007) do not carry sufficient precision. I tested this by :- FOR X=1 TO 500 CRT PORT:" ":DATE():" ":TIME():" ":SYSTEM(9):" ":SYSTEM(12):" ":SYSTEM (1007):" ":SYSTEM(2001) NEXT X Any ideas? Also, what does SYSTEM(2001) carry?
