RE: Unique identifer for keyed sequence

Make sure your identity field is large enough for the data volume. There are
several options for wrap-around, starting value, ending value, etc. 

That's interesting about ALTER TABLE. I didn't know you could add identity
values after the fact...

ok,  I hear you.  So,  I can alter the file DDS with SQL, and then RPG, DDS,
WRKQRY will recognize the new trait? 



Is there a downside that I need to be prepared for?
