That's the way AutoNumber works. It doesn't reset to 1 when all the records
are deleted unless you delete the key, save the table and recreate the key.
In one of the recent posts John suggested using Integer / Long Integer and
then using VBA to do the record incrementing. I personally would go for that
to avoid the problem of AutoNumber.

Subject: [ms_access] Set Autonumber back to #1

Dear all,

I set one of the database field as an autonumber.After I delete the
records, and add new new record, the autonumber doesnt start at 1. Can
anybody give me advice on this?

Thanks
