Unique ID

[j]

I need to link to an ACT database table. The Unique ID looks like this:
/A#*4 PZ\DW

I tried converting it into ascii but the number is too long (22 Digits).
Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

Why do you want it to convert to a number?

I am replacing a table that existes already in a large database with this
link or a query built from this link so all the relationships are already in
place and are based on a numeric id.

i still not understand

you have nothing to link, this field has no counterpart in your
existing database.

do you use a conversion table between the ACT database and you
existing database?
