-|Hi folks,
-|
-|I'm in the planning stage of a new development project, and I'd like to
-|incorporate the use of  surrogate keys within the database 
-|schema. Ideally,
-|these key values would be Universal Unique Identifiers (UUID).
-|
-|Does anyone know if OS/400 provides an API, or other method of  
-|generating a
-|UUID?
-|
