I need an auto increment function like the ones includes with MM for the primary key NewID() for another field.

Is it possible to use the NewID() function to auto increment a field other than the primary key?

I just tried unsuccessfully by adding an entry into the ID.dbf table, but NewID checks the “Database” property through CursorGetProp and it crashes even if I add a “dummy” table with the same entry into ID.dbf

I’ll create another function to auto increment fields, but I’d like to hear the advisse from other MM users.

Thanks in advance and regards
