Seamus,

The following QTP can be used to get sequential number assigned to new
records being added
to a dataset/table.  The SUBFILE contains the data to be added.  The CONTROL
file has the
numeric field/column containing the next sequential number to be assigned.
Since the
CONTROL file is not part of the ACCESS statement it will be fetched each
time a record is
Processed as part of the QTP output pass.
This assumes that you have a CONTROL file with an fixed INDEX that can
be retrieved.

ACCESS *SUBFILE

OUTPUT CONTROL UPDATE VIA INDEX  CONTROL-KEY USING **
  ITEM NEXT-CUST-NO FINAL NEXT-CUST-NO OF CONTROL + 1

OUTPUT CUSTOMERS ADD
  ITEM CUST-NO FINAL NEXT-CUST-NO OF CONTROL
  ITEM CUST-NAME FINAL CUST-NAME  OF SUBFILE
  ITEM CUST-ADDRESS FINAL CUST-ADDRESS OF SUBFILE


Good Luck!,
