Sequences are normally sequential numbering Oracle provides the programmer.

Example:

            Order Number Customer

              00001               ABC
              00002               BCD
              00003               CDE

               etc.

If you add a sequence key to the Order Number, you do not have to manually add it yourself. Received on Mon May 12 1997 - 00:00:00 CDT
