From a form, in the OnCurrent event, you could have something like
Me.AllowAdditions = (Me.Recordsetclone.recordcount > 0) ca************@gmail.com wrote in

Create an autonumbe field. set the table validation property to
[field]=1, Replace [field] with the actual name of your field.

I wouldn't use a table-level validation rule, but a field-level rule
on the Autonumber field, and make it <=10 or whatever the limit on
the number of records you want to limit it to.

That will work in SQL, but has nothing to do with the original
question, which is about limiting the number of rows that can be
added to a table.

How can you set a field validation rule for an autonumber?
There's no property for that in the design grid. (ACC2000)

Actually, after thinking about it, you don't need an autonumber,
just an int. set the default value to 1, the primary key to the
field, and the validation rule to allow only the one number.

Well, that works for a single-record table, but fails for any other
number of records.
