Sure... I am importing data from a different source and need to keep
the unique ID values. My thought was to set the BI to inactive,
import then post the code.

My trigger checks for null IDs before assigning it, so I guess I
could disable the automated part in IBO, import the data, and set the
geneator to the max value as well. I do have Updated_DateTime field
that I will loose the value of (they will all become current, not a
big deal).
