One of the reasons why we are migrating is that the current vendors
generation strategy is crap - we regularly get "duplicate PK" SQL exceptions
on our production servers and the vendor developers don't understand
that their PK generation algorithm is not "production ready" or stable yet.

I don't want to make a product down so I don't name it here but the fact is
that we permanently are having stability problems with the CMP engine.

The solution with hi-lo table setting the value to the current max() of the
db values provided by Patrick sounds good - I think I'll give it a try.

thank you!
