Hi Doug-

This is kind of on the same subject. When I create a field which will be used as an autoincrementing key and put it in the Field Repository as such, I can't use it as a foreign key in a child table. ... because when I bring it into the child table from the field repository, it comes in with an field type of autoincrementing and you really can't change the field type since it changes right back if you update the tables. Is this just a chicken or egg situation or is there a workaround?
