Thanks Bill and Nic for replying...
Nic - If i create INDEX as below on the table
CREATE INDEX INX_SEQ_ID
ON test_table (SEQ_ID)
and then run this query
EXEC SQL
SELECT MAX(SEQ_ID)
INTO :DCLTB99-TRANS.SEQ-ID
:SOF-TRANS-SEQ-ID
FROM TEST_TABLE
END-EXEC
Will this reduce the cost...??
Bill - "Can't you store the value somewhere when you know it, rather than lazily rummaging about for the highest one?."
By the above do you mean that if I select all SEQ_ID using below query.
SELECT SEQ_ID FROM TEST_TABLE
and store the values in a PS file and then applying SORT to find the highest...
Will this work...???
Please suggest![icon_idea.gif]()
