Thanks for the fast response (and possible fix).

Unfortunately, I cannot compile the CVS tree:

ui/dlgEditGridOptions.cpp:51: error: `wxID_REMOVE' was not declared in
this scope

Perhaps this has to do with the fact that I use wxWidgets 5.1.1 (5.3.x
is not available as Debian packages yet). I'll wait for the Beta3 to
come out.

We have a lot of data passing through our database, not necessarily
staying in there. The uniqueness of the OIDs for us is only important
within the schema (within the table in most cases). Since each time we
load new data, a new schema is created I'm not too afraid for
duplicates. Thanks for the note though.
