I supspect that you are deleting all records from one of the tables in
the database? If you use the admin meny's function for deleting items, I
belive everything is deleted. If that is to much work, you shuld make a
dump of the database and look at witch tables are involved in the item
system. I belive there are four tables that all together creates the
system of items and skus.

I suppose if you handle the data from 0 and add one records item and one
to sku it will, because it is numbered from 1.
You can also create a database dump from a desktop database, and control
it that way. I myself get data from customers in a access or simular
file, and create's a sql dump in Filemaker. (Would you belive it :-))
I don't know if you use phpMyAdmin, but that will help if you need to
look at the database, or perform dumps or simular.
