Thanks Charles. This seems to correspond with DSPFFD output, and the
"Current START WITH" shown there is 1, but when I do an insert on this
table, the value placed in the column is 9,442,900, which is one more than
the previous record written to the table. Both DSPFFD and the QDBRTVFD API
refer to "Original START WITH value" and "Current START WITH value", so one
could assume that the latter value should provide the current identity
value. I'll try to whip up something Q&D to see what the API divulges.

I also queried SYSCOLUMNS, but strangely enough, it defines only one
"IDENTITY_START" value. I wonder if there's another SYS* table/view that
has more IDENTITY-type info. Perhaps the "Original START WITH value" and
"Current START WITH value" shown in DSPFFD and the QDBRTVFD API are
populated from the same "IDENTITY_START" value? FWIW, we're on v7r1,
fairly current with TRs and PTFs.

Not positive...

But it appears the the *Qdb_Qddfidcl *section of the Retrieve Database File
Description (QDBRTVFD) API may have this as "Current STARTS WITH"
