    How do I reset Autonumber??

    The effect it will have on the other tables is that it will reset all their autonumbers to the next available number. So if you have an empty table, the next available number is 1. If you have a table that has 2059 as the highest autonumber value being used, it will set the next available...

    Do we need moderators?

    I moderated another MS Access forum until I was given administrator rights (the owner was extremely busy and wanted a backup). Our main purpose was to keep the forums "clean".
