This is an updated question to my previous enquiry.  I am going to say 
thanks to the really nice folks who answered my last question.

The basic issue is I have a database file that I have updated irregularly 
on two different systems.  One is consistently the more rational system, 
but it has goofy id numbers because of the way it has been updates.

The particular table I want to update will have two sets of numbers side by 
side.  n^1, n^2.   N1 is a number of 1 to 3 digits.   N2 is three or four 
digits.   I have other three digit or four digit sets in the database, so I 
only want to update the three or four digit number next to the very first 
number in the table, which can be one, two or three digits.

I want to tell the machine to find the pair of numbers, eliminate the 
second set so that the database when I drop and then rebuild the table the 
second set will be set from the auto increment and will start at one, 
rather than at 1400.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks again for your courtesy.
