But BMC can change ar.h at any time, without warning, like during the next 
upgrade.

I'm afraid BMC would have to go quite far to get to infinity.  Especially
since a field id is limited to a 32 bit integer - from ar.h:

        typedef ARULong32     ARInternalId;/* structure to hold an internal
id */

Infinity always makes me smile!

Honestly, I can't fathom who needs 1 billion numbers, but BMC has been using
1,000,000,161 for Request IDs lately and 1,000,000,082 for Company, so I'd
guess they're headed to infinity.

If you're in their way, you might get overwritten.

Yeah, I meant 600 million. I still have trouble counting to 5 so numbers
larger than that stump me. :)

Huh.  I suspect it's the number of digits in your ID that's causing the
issue.  I seem to recall that 600,000,000 to 999,999,999 is reserved for
custom development.  Field IDs 599,999,999 and below are for BMC's use, but
I don't recall anything about using IDs above 1,000,000,000.

Subject: "Outside of Reserved Range" warning?

Hello Listers,
ARS 7.6.03
MS SQL Server 2005
VMWare Windows 2003 Enterprise
I've been working in the Dev Studio for a while and I keep getting the
following response when I create fields.
"You have specified an id for the following fields which is outside the BMC
reserved range. Do you want to continue?"
I could see a warning for creating a field inside the range of reserved
field ids but outside?
Is there a config setting in Dev Studio to stop this message?
The field ids that I use are all between 1,587,700,000 and 1,587,711,199

Thanks,
