Is there a way to reset the AutoNumber sequence?
I have several tables that use the AutoNumber field as the Primary Key, and
I'd like to somehow do an Import/Export that will make remove the breaks in
the sequence. A few breaks in sequence is not a big deal, but I have one
table with under 200 records, but the last AutoNumber PK ID field is over
1500 - due to a lot of edits....

Thou shalt not use Autonumber if the field is meant to have meaning for thy
users.
Why?

Hi:
I know this is a strange question, but I have inherited a system where files are copied
and records re auto numbered (as an index field) )frequently, and I am wondering how high
the number can go without the system crashing.
An ancillary question is how one resets an auto number so that the sequence starts again
at 1.
In the case of this file, the auto number field serves no useful purpose except as an

Sometimes I use Autonumber fields for ID fields. Furthermore,
sometimes I use those same fields in orderdetail type tables. So it's
important in that case that once an autonumber key value is assigned to
a record that it doesn't change. Occasionally I find that due to
corruption or an accidental deletion and restore of a record from a
backup the autonumber field needs to be tidied up. So when I create
(through AddNew) the autonumber...

I have a simple complaint tracking Db with one main table and one main
form for entering data. I need for the users to be able to see the
record number for future reference when they come back to the
application to update or close that record. The record number is field
RecordId and is an AutoNumber field. (Also the primary key) Is there a
way to show the AutoNumber value in the form when a new record is
opened?

I have an A97 database table (tblCorrespondence] in a database
installed at 2 sites. The table's key field is not a
natural key - its an autonumber field. Here are the values at the
2 sites. First, site #1. Then, site #2. If you plot them, you'll see
why I'm worried - I'm afraid I'll be running out-a-numbers soon.
For the life of me, I have no clue why they're not incrementing
by 1. Hope someone can help.

I am using an autonumber as a form id with a SubForms (which
automatically fill the linking fields from the parent into the child).
Occasionally (maybe 5% of the time) the autonumber does not work... it
simple continues to say "(autonumber)" and so the child linking field
isn't created. The data entered is in the table but the autonumber id
field is blank so the subform linked data can not be linked and/or
displayed. Anyone have any...

To comp.databases.ms-access --
I just discovered, to my more than mild dismay, that some tables in my
Microsoft Access 2003 database have duplicate numbers in the
"AutoNumber" field. (Field Size is set to "Long Integer", and New
Values is set to "Increment".) I know that an old version of the Jet
database engine can cause this problem, but my version of msjet40.dll
is 4.0.8618.0, which is supposedly bug-free in this respect. I am...

Hello All,
(newbie)...I'm working on an Ordering app using the typical tables (customers, orders). I have a Search form to find existing customers prior to entering a new order. On the search form there's a combo control called 'custname' so that when a customer is located, the existing customer name is filled in and the account number goes into the Account control (from an autonumber field called CustomerID from Customer table). The rest of...

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.

Hello

I am currently learning how to create and manage the different types of VPNs and I have a question about LAN-to-LAN VPNs.
The last exercise I practiced was to create a LAN-to-LAN VPN between two Pfsense firewalls, by using IPSEC protocols.
I succeeded, with both firewalls in the same network. But I'm wondering if it's possible to do the same thing, with 2 Pfsense firewalls...
