Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Data Management:
Database Administration

> ## Loading sequence values using a Data tool

> The Data Administration tool and the Data Dictionary use a contents file that you specify to load sequence values into the database. Usually, this file is called `_seqvals.d`.

> | To load sequence values:

> 1. Access the appropriate Data tool (the Data Administration tool if you are using a graphical interface or the Data Dictionary if you are using a character interface).

> 2. Make sure that the working database is the target database where you want to load the table contents.

> 3. Choose Admin Load Data and Definitions Sequence Current Values. The Data tool prompts you for the filename where you want to write the sequence values. The default filename is `_seqvals.d`.

> 4. Specify the filename or use the default value. After the sequence values are loaded, the Data tool displays a status message and prompts you to continue.

> 5. Choose OK to return to the Data Administration or Data Dictionary main window.
