In your GetNextID routine you can have this code:

lparameter tcTable
if empty(tcTable) or vartype(tcTable)<>"C" && forgot to pass tcTable
  * well, we can assume, it's the name of the current alias table - it's not 100% safe, but better, than nothing
    local lcAlias
    lcAlias=alias()
    if empty(lcAlias) && this is too bad
        * messagebox()
       return .f.
    else
      tcTable=juststem(dbf(lcAlias))
    endif
endif
* proceed with the rest of the routine
