Rich/Narendran - uh oh!! Does the shared buffer require unique key per id??

Question

Rich/Narendran -
Something just occurred to me:
Does "shared buffer" mean that more than one user can be sharing the same buffer, or is the buffer unique to each user session and is merely "shared" between work processes?
If multiple users are sharing the same "shared buffer", then I can assign a unique key when I export the data in the first exit.
But short of using a custom z table, how can I figure out what this key is in the second exit?  I can't "save" the key anywhere, because that's the problem in the first place ...
I'm hoping that you'll tell me that the "shared buffer" is shared between different work processes for the same user, and not among different users as well !!
Thanks for whatever you can tell me about this.

Hi Naren -
I've worked on DBMS's in the past where you could pick up a user's thread # in addition to his or her ID - if SAP had anything like that then that would do the job.  Maybe there's a "hidden" sy-something that actually gives you the unique thread ID ... ????
