I am having a problem trying to set the autonumber in a table back to 0. I worked through the help info and was able to do this on my laptop(Win 98). I did this by creating a temporary table with one record with one long integer field with a default value of 0. I would append this record to another table(after deleting all previous records). I would then append attitional records from another table which would then be numbered 1 through whatever. I cannot seem to do this under XP at work, as it keeps incrementing. Do anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance for any help.
 
After you remove all of the records from the table, compact the database.

The first record you enter should then have an autonumber value of 1.
