I m testing my database by inputing test values in the
form using ACCESS97. The primary key has been incrementing
ever since.

How do I reset the primary key to 0 when I have finished
testing?

Thanks!

Regards
Ivan

You can empty the tables, and then compact the database (Tools menu).

However, you shouldn't care what the value of an autonumber is, as there
will always be gaps.
