- To get a unique sequence on each load you can also use
-
- colname SEQUENCE (startnum,increment) ! where startnum is spec'd by you
- colname SEQUENCE (MAX,increment) ! where (if I remember right) MAX is the
- ! largest value for the col currently in
- ! the table and loader will start #'ing
- ! w/MAX+increment
