That is a wrong assumption - there is no "between" for rows in a relational database.
Why do you think you need that?
A sequence is used to generate a unique number. The only job of that number is to be unique.
You should never rely on PK values to be "gapless" nor should you rely on them defining any kind of ordering.

Yes, I'm fairly aware of this. However the application the database table belongs to seems to rely on a specific order
inthe database. I.e. if I just add value to the table they end up, possibly due to how the application is coded in an
undesireablespot on the web page.
That is why I wanted them to be inserted with the previous records.
