Reset a Sequence at Midnight on New Years Eve

402355May 19 2004 — edited May 20 2004

Hi,

How can I reset a sequence generator at midnight on New Year’s Eve?

Using SQL script and SQL-Plus, I know how to set the sequence increment to a negative number large enough to return the “Next Val” to 1 (then re-set increment to 1).

But, ‘need help to understand how to cause this action to happen automatically. I’m thinking along the lines of a trigger or stored procedure.

Thank you
