Dear Commonqlik,

You are right, field "new" is showing odd numbers and field "news" is showing even numbers.

It's happening due to the same autonumberhash128, when first line execute it generate "1" for field "new" and when it moves to the next line it finds the same autonumberhash128, then it generate "2" for field "new1" and same for each step.


Kindly find attached document.
