Hmm, would you issue that kind of command with many users on? Personally, in a multi-user environment, I find NEXT to be the safest option.

SET VAR vTableName TEXT = 'YourTableName' SET VAR vColumnName TEXT = 'YourAutonumColName' SELECT d1.SYS_NEXT FROM Sys_Defaults d1, Sys_Columns c2, Sys_Tables t3 + WHERE d1.sys_column_id = c2.sys_column_id + AND c2.sys_table_id = t3.sys_table_id + AND t3.sys_table_name = .vTableName + AND c2.sys_column_Name = .vColumnName SELECT MAX ( &vColumnName ) FROM &vTableName These two queries give you the "next" number to be autoassigned, and the current highest value. You could create a cursor to find all the sys_column_ids where SYS_DEFAULT.Column _ID is not null, and look up the current maxes for those columns. Bill Bill
