Yes, don't do anything different - just don't use GeneratorLinks on this
dataset at all. SetGeneratorLinks calls Gen_ID() anyway. Just make
certain you do the calls to Gen_ID() in your BeforePost event. I suggest
that you move the DuplicateRow action into a separate procedure so that you
can put some very simple conditioning into your BeforePost to get the other
fields filled before it moves on to the generator-grabbing code.

Oh, btw, there was an element missing in the Gen_ID() syntax I gave you -
it's actually a method of either the IB_Connection or of the IB_Statement
class. You can call either, but you'll need to include the object-identifier.
