Re: Repetition of Unique Record Identifiers
I was recently looking through the R2002 access database looking for something, when I noticed that some of the Unique record identifiers (GUIds) occur several times in different tables. For instance, the GUId for the survey containing all my data for 1976 is WA000151000001, as is the GUId for Subcortical in the relationship_type table. Further searching revealed that lots of unique identifiers crop up on more than one occasion, even when its not relating to the same object in the database. Is this a problem, or is it something that occurs in all Recorder databases? I'd appreciate it if someone could have a look for duplicated GUIds in their own databases to confirm whether I have to start my database from scratch!
Cheers,
