> Okay... What's the requirement that keeps you from using generators?
I need number generators which give back sequence numbers without
skipping and repeating. But don't know how many needed. The number of
needed generators depend on the customers(X Ltd., Y Ltd, ...). This is
why I want to store the generators in a table.

The transaction do other work before grab the number and after grab the
number. The whole thing is in a (one) stored procedure. (Works like a
charm except deadlocks.)

If I understand your question correctly... I don't think will be high
load but I test is because not want to see deadlock in production.

For testing purposes the test app insert the generated numbers into a
one field table which have a unique constraint. I not see any error
except the deadlocks.
