Schalven Posted June 12, 2003 Share Posted June 12, 2003 I have a simple database that we track deductions. Each of the deductions that we log in to the database has a unique transaction ID that we get from our customers (we key this number in manually). Sometimes they send us the same deductions (sometimes months later). Now to my question. Is there some way to know when we put the transaction number in that a message or something will tell us that the transaction was already put in.
