Not totally relevant, but I just love trotting out that FileMaker Pro (presumably) assigns a unique, incremented ID to every row it ever creates, because on its tech specs page, the number of records per table is limited to, "64 quadrillion total records over life time of file." http://help.filemaker.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/10026/ _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
