Trying to re-design a form which I have imported data to.
I need to have a numbering system on the records. I already have a field for numbers and w/ the imported records the number goes up to 800. Would like to start new entries at
1000 and keep the sequence going from there. Don't want to use @number (which I assume could start at 1000 (?)) because of the "limitations" of only one per application. Now my old Q&A had  1 sequential numbering system in 2 seperate databases. Is the @number limited in sesame of one per application or 1 per database? I'm new to this so I hope you understand what I'm getting at.
Anyways I would like to use the @globalvalue (which works fine except I haven't figured out how to start at a certain #)
Just tried it in test mode in designer (test of the db not program) but it numbers from 1 and then goes up from there. THE CODE: if @isnew and nber = "" Then {nber = @tonumber(@globalvalue (1000)) + 1
globalvalue (1000 , nber) }
What's the best way? 

Yes, you can have multiple counters. There has been extensive discussion on that topic including how that can be accomplished, under the topic "Crashing Sdesigner".  Bob Scott has explained the method in detail. Please follow the link-

I hope this will help.
