Glad it is working the way you want.
I didn't pay that thread too much attention, but in general I prefer to
maintain my SQL schema scripts by hand rather than rely on a tool.
Especially after a schema is past the point of initial development. I
just find it easier to put everything in a file (under version control)
so it is documented and has a history.

Subject: Re: MySql auto generated PK
I removed
mysqlDbAdapter.setSupportsGeneratedKeys(true);
and
isGenerated="true"
It works! It starts inserting at 200 and takes 20 PKs in batches and
then increment the correct value in AUTO_PK_SUPPORT table.
Where do I click to give you credits!?! ;-)
Thanks again,
Borut
P.S. What is your stand on (thread subject: MySql AUTO_PK_SUPPORT) the
following:
