Hi,

What have to be done, so that the ISN of the deleted records can be re-used for new records?

Thanks in advance.

When you create a new ADABAS file, you can set the REUSE ISN attribute to YES.

If the file already exist, you can use the utility ADADBS with ISNREUSE option.

When switching from ISN REUSE 'NO' to 'YES', you have to make sure that your application does not use ISN numbers hard coded in the programs.
