This will automatically start from zero and fill in the subsequent numbers. rklchow 12-19-2001, 06:31 PM What if i want the same field name with the autonumber reset back to zero? jereece 12-19-2001, 08:18 PM Set the field type from auto number to just number, save the database, then change the field type back to auto number and save. This resets the counter. boblarson 12-19-2001, 09:36 PM Also, if there is no data in the table at the time, running Compact Database will reset it too. I have a table where I need it to start over each month. I delete all of the records, compact the database, and then import into the table. BL hth |
