Hi John,
Thanks for the solution. If I use currval('sqlname') in a loop of 70000 records, what will happen if a record is inserted manually? I guess it will alter the sequences, and wrong values/chain might be introduced in foreign tables in the below function. Could you please clarify me on this?
Thanks and Regards,
Siva.
