Hi Jim,

It seems to me that the problem lies in the inc_key() function. That's where the duplicate key is being produced.

Regards,

Liam

>I have implemented this same code one numerous applications every time I want to add a record. When I try to do it with my current client, I am geting a lot of duplicate key assignments. We have disabled write-back cache on the server and workstations, and I have been executing Flush commands, but we are still getting duplicate values.
