This discussion is so odd for me. back in the early days of my development career, 20 years ago, I did something like a GUID for PK's, though nobody I knew about used the term. It was a pure gut- feel thing.

Now, the tables are turned back, and I see Michael's (and others) code, and it looks very familiar. <g> Maybe it *was* better performance in Fox/VFP days, but still...
