Help me, I am looking for a way to add an Auto-Number field to either a new or exsisting table using a query. The only way I can do this now is to manualy insert a new field and set it to Auto-Number. I would like to take this manual step out of my process.

Thanks,

Robert
 
Robert,

Access help topic "change the starting value of an autonumber field" tells you how to accomplish this with a query.

Hope that helps.
