VB sample for setting autoincrement property for a column

[Theresa_Stadheim]

                                                                            
 Here is the VB sample.  I did the steps to create the database (except I   
 created it in Access 2000), and create a new table.  I also created the    
 AutoNumber ID column, except I am stuck on the parts about setting parent  
 catalog and setting autoincrement to true.  Then, I created a primary key. 
 So, I guess my question is: how do I translate the parent catalog thing    
 and the autoincrement thing into Python?                                   
                                                                            
 Thanks,
