C# and Access

I have a weird problem with C# and an access database. I have a table with a primary key set to autonumber. I allowed C# to create the tableadapter, binding srouce, navagator, etc.

The data navigatort has am ADD button. When I click on add, it will create a new recrod but it someitmes creates a primary key that has been used and deleted previosuly which of course access will not allow. Then I cannot save the record.

Weird. I woudl have thought that C# gets the key from the access database. Any ideas on hwo to correc tthis issue?

I can't comment on the C# end of it but when adding a record in Access and the Primary key is an autonumber you ignore this field entirely in the INSERT statement. Access handles it automatically.
