Auto Number() :Returns a unique integer value for each distinct evaluated value of expression encountered during the script execution. This function can be used e.g. for creating a compact memory representation of a complex key.

In order to create multiple counter instances if the autonumber function is used on different keys within the

script, an optional parameter AutoID can be used for naming each counter.

Auto generate () :Autogenerate is a function that can be used with Load Statement in the script side. This function is used to generate specified number of rows using script.
