Resetting tables

P

Paul Hayes

Have a table I want to reset a table that uses automeric
numbers for the index (key). I have deleted the entries
in the table because I want to start again, but the index
keeps incrementing from it's previous value. I want put
to the index, or record from 0, not for example 7. How do
I do
this?.

Your help would be great.

Thanks

Paul

While there are no records in the table, compacting the MDB file should reset
the autonumber field back to zero (first record will be 1).
