No, autonumber is AUTO. users cant do nuthin to it.
You can make a blanket update query to create your ID , but I dont see the need.
(autoumber ...duh)

Instead of using the table for your work, from now on use a query qsTable, that builds this ID on the fly...
so the first field would be:
"ST_" & [IDNUM] as CoID

Then Answer to,

by,
No, autonumber is AUTO. users cant do nuthin to it.
is not entierly TRUE, you can "reseed" autonumbers. Yes, it is possible. However then process is a tad tedious and not highly recommended. Although, I am convinced that there is no need to actually store such values unless otherwise necessary.

I do not actually follow your question here,
also it is ms a ccess web database?
If the question was, Is Access a Web Database, the answer is NO. Access is a normal Front end to the JET DB Engine. However if your question were to be Can Access be used as a Web DatabaseThe answer is yes.
