Well, what if I wanted to restore a database with ids used in multi- table links? From what I read of the "import csv" it discards the id field and inserts new records -- which will cause any linked records from other tables to break. Come to think of it, I'm not sure how you restore a database at all unless the ids can be set explicitly.
At least this is one use case. -- Joe B. On Mar 5, 9:49 pm, mdipierro <mdipie...@cs.depaul.edu> wrote: > Why would anybody do such a thing?
