Thanks for responding. I think I should clarify my question again. Yes, sequence number will only help if i key in the data sequentially. My problem is that I may insert data in between a certain sequential number.

For example, i have row 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6....etc I would like to insert a new row in between 4 and 5. Can I use trigger for this?

Can someone tell me what is the MAX value of the sequential number? What if the running number runs out one fine day??
