The datawindow identity column documentation says this:
By specifying an identity column in the Specify Update Properties dialog box, you tell PowerBuilder to bring back the value of a new row's identity column after an insert in the DataWindow object so that users can see it.
So if you have an identity column in the database, this should return the new value to you when you create a new record.
When I am connected with Sybase, this works as expected.
When I am connected with mssql server, this does not work ... and I do not know why.
Is there a known issue with powerbuilder behaving differently depending upon which database is the backend?
