Re: Identity columns and RLA

Thanks Alan. I saw that with SQL you can override the generated identity column value, and got to wondering if writing a value with RLA would do something like that.

It works fine. Only way I know is with SQL or by reading the last record
but SQL statement is no big deal. Only one line of code.

What happens when writing a record with RLA to a table that has an
identity column?

Assuming it actually works, i.e. ignores the value in the identity column
on the WRITE, is there a way to get the value assigned to the identity
column?
