Vic,

Not sure if I have this right, but are you saying the newid() stored procedure is firing twice, once for the parent table and then a second time for the child table? If so, this is correct procedure to ensure unique id's in each table. In a parent/child relationship, you need to add another field to the child table, something like parentid. Then when you go to save changes, the parent table has a unique id, which you can store to a child(s) record in the parentid field. Each child record though will have it's own unique id to ensure the primary index of that table.

Kind Regards,

Mat
