I have a series of tables I have created in ArcCatalog which I want to populate externally from some code I have written in .NET.

I had assumed that the OJBECTID field was a sequence field, but this is obviously not the case. How is the OBJECTID number derived for each row in each layer if it is not a sequence field? Do you run a MAX(OBJECTID) first prior to each Insert?

Thanks

David
