Registry Edit Safety Tigger -- have you had any feedback as to whether editing the registry is somewhat safe? I have the same problem with the MaxCounts and I'm hesitant about messing with the registry. If I can simply change it, perform the action I want, then change it back then I would do...

I have scrolled through other posts that are somewhat similar to this problem, however, I am not exactly a programmer so when people talk about entering code I'm asking myself -- where? If I can do it in VB then I can handle it...but I know enough to get nervous when someone is telling me to...

I'm getting a unique error when I attempt to add an AutoNumber field to a table that I created. The table itself has ~110,000 records but it will not let me create an ID tag for the records so that I can create a primary key. The error reads "File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase...
