If he's using PostgreSQL he can create a sequence and then just select the nextval() of it. It is safe to use it concurrently (in fact PG's SERIAL type is an automation to using an integer with a default of nextval() to a sequence) and it is incremented automatically. -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
