Yes Mike... just take a record count of the table first... then just increment by one ... and there is your cross-platform autonumber... no autonumber data type(MS) and no trigger (Oracle) needed. You would need to change the data type of the message id field to number. There are really only 2 types of management the Database server should perform. They are:
1) User management
2) Concurrency Control Management
For a cross-platform forum, everything else should be managed in the ASP code. I know this will create a lot of up front work. However, if you want a forum that works correctly against MS and Oracle, you have no choice but to perform all but the 2 management processes mentioned earlier in the ASP code.
