Hi Peter, this would not work because if as David says in his post that SYS(2015) only returns "unique on a given CPU/clock. So it's possible that two users may generate the same number in a network application" then your "microsleep" would be running on all machines too and therefore you're back to the same problem.

Have a look at what Tamor Granor said Re: Sys(3) Unique Test Thread #746521 Message #746648


running on local PCs.
