I assume GetFieldValue is the name of a VB function or property get?
Try either
Set oRs = oConn.Execute("SELECT N_GEN::int FROM MyTable ORDER BY N_GEN DESC")
or
GetFieldValue = cint(oRs("N_GEN")) + 1
or
GetFieldValue = clng(oRs("N_GEN")) + 1
In the last two cases make sure that the function or property get returns an int or long
Also remember that if oRs("N_GEN") is NULL the sum will also be NULL

Hello
i have a column N_GEN in postgreSql defined as text. In this coloumn i insert a number 10
N_GEN (text) = 10
on error resume next
Set oRs = oConn.Execute("SELECT N_GEN FROM MyTable ORDER BY N_GEN DESC")
If err <> 0 then 'If table not found
GetFieldValue = "1"
else
GetFieldValue = oRs("N_GEN") + 1
End If
But it doesn't add the 1 to my N_GEN
How can i set the Recordset to convert the string to a number and then add 1 to it??
