numero = 11886
interpreted = N
texte = OK so I messed up when I first got started using WebCat2.0 and created adatabase that doesn't use a [cart] to create a unique record ID.What happened is that somebody used the back button and then went forewardusing the html and created to identical records based on a name. If theywould have started at my add page entry point I have a checker there toprevent this....but oh well it happened. When we tried to delete theserecords both with the same name it hung webcat. So what I want to do is goback this weekend and import the database into FilemakerPro and add a fieldthat in the future will be a [cart] number so this problem never occursagain. This is all in a database not used for shopping.So can I just make the field where the [cart] value will go and just filleach recored like 1,2,3,4,5,6 and so forth for these 225 some odd recordsand then any new records will get the [cart] value? Anybody do this yet?Seems like it should not be a problem. Just looking for somebody elsesexperince who has done this.Live and Learn.===============================================Gary Richter PanaVise Products, Inc. 7540 Colbert Dr. Reno, Nevada 89511 Ph: 702.850.2900 Fx: 702.850.2929 Email: grichter@panavise.com http://www.panavise.com===============================================
