Returning next ID Value? [message #101085] Fri, 23 April 2004 04:32 Go to next message

Hi,

I'm using the following code to get the next table ID from a sequence: -

strSQL = "SELECT SEQ_TB_CUSTOMERS.NEXTVAL FROM DUAL"
            
Set objOraDynaset = m_OraDatabase.createdynaset(strSQL, 0&)
            
lngID = objOraDynaset.fields(0).Value

The above works but the next ID isn't sequential, I'm getting e.g. 216, 218, 220, 222, 224 etc.

Any idea why this could be?

Regards

If you are running this twice in a row without shutting down the database, then it is because your sequence is setup to increment by 2.

If this is occurring between database restarts, then it is because the sequence is set to 'cache 2'.
