I want to get the key.
The reason is a problem during a Software upgrade (SAP).
In our test system everything works well and in our production system the
upgrade stopped with an error due to create the primary index after
inserting 770005 rows.
Now I try to find out why it works in one system and not in the other. I
may help to get the key of row 770006, you know ?
