Sorry, try doubling it:

 EL2.@@Identity > EL1.@@Identity)

- @Identity gets you a new value, sort of like calling an InterBase 
generator
- @@Identity gets current value for a row.

Caveat: I'm not an MSSQL expert, I actually know this only from reading 
other posts over time, so I *could* still be wrong, but I think I have it 
straight now.
