recently i pasted quite a lot of data from another database (on another site) to my validate.db file so that i could arange them by category in my directory. one big problem i had was that links kept numbering links in such a way that it was placing new links that i validated from my users on the same id that i had sites already posted on...how could i avoid this?

i was thinking on pasting my links from my other site to validate.db and then simply adding a url from the admin and making it one number higher than the last unique id that i pasted in to validate.db.

any advice gretefully received.
