What happened to my IDs?

No history of any deletions, or purging of objects 86, 87,88, or 89. Just created what should have been 86 and 87, but they are numbered 90 and 91. Anywhere I can chect to see what happened beyond history?

Try View->Show->Deletions.

The ID number will be assigned if an object is created.
There will be no history of the object creation if the module was NOT saved when closed.

You may be able to figure out what happened by looking at the History-tab of Module Properties. Select the "Sessions" radio button in the "Show history of" area of the dialog box. Compare what you see under "Sessions" to what you see when you select the "All" radio button.

To clarify, try this:
o Open Edit, create an object, notice it's ID is X.
o Close module without Saving.
o Open Edit, create an object, notice it's ID is X+1.

The Object count is incremented and saved when the object is created, it's not backed out when you fail to save the module.
