Subject: TMG-L: Renumbering database
Date: Tue, 3 Aug 1999 11:54:52 +1000


G'day All,

I have just finished merging two databases, one containing 223 names into
one containing 17244 names. The resultant data base has the additional 223
names starting at ID#17924 - a gap of 660 ID numbers.

My question is, will the 17244 names retain their original numbers if I
renumber all the numbers in the database? And secondly, why did the merge
routine leave the gap?

Thanks in advance
