I am using the unique ID generated for each record to index into my database using the DmFindRecordByID function. It works well and the handheld automatically generates the ID so it makes a handy key. Occasionally I need to generate records on the PC side and I want to generate a temporary ID for use just until the next sync when the handheld will generate the permanent ID.
I just need to know how the ID is generated so I can be sure that my temporary IDs don't accidentally duplicate a permanent ID. The docs I've found so far just tell me the ID is automatically generated, not how. Is there a minimum or maximum value I can use to make sure my IDs are safe? Thanks in advance.
