Get next autoincrement value for datatable column?

Question

I have a datatable with an AutoIncrement column. How can I get the next increment (-1,-2,-3,...) for the column without adding a new row?

Accepted Answer

If it fits in to your design, you can always create the new row (datatable.newrow) and it will already have assigned the nextId. It's now wasted but the row isn't committed to the table until you `AcceptChanges`.
