Returns the last Automatic Sequence Number applied.
Syntax
$ ZimSeqNum
Return Value
Number, representing an Automatic Sequence Number or $Null in case of an error.
Comments
The value returned by $ ZimSeqNum is taken from the most recent ASN used. Notice that when the ADD command adds more than one record, $ ZimSeqNum will contain the value of the last record added.
$ ZimSeqNum also returns the number set using SET SEQUENCENUMBER MyEnt . Upon execution of SET SEQUENCENUMBER MyEnt ON, $ZimSeqNum returns the next number available. The $ZimSeqNum result after executing SET SEQUENCENUMBER ALL ON is undefined.
Example
If all ADD statements refer to objects that contain ASN, the $ZimSeqNum will return the value taken by the last ADD:
ADD 1 Customers ...
ADD 100 MyEnt from MyDoc ...
output $ZimSeqNum
