| May 24, 2011 at 20:59 | comment | added | Pylsa | Rest of @BaconBits's comment: nce you see articles like this when something goes pear-shaped because people expect Autonumber to be something it's not. If you need to generate numbers in this manner, write the queries and such in the DB to do it properly yourself. | |

| May 24, 2011 at 20:42 | comment | added | Bacon Bits | Not an answer, but a warning: Autonumber is not designed to be managed in this way. I've seen countless people try it. It never works because the DB will do weird things incrementing sometimes (failed writes still increment the number, for example). Autonumber does not guarantee that the record numbers will be consecutive. Indeed, in rare cases it won't even guarantee the number will be unique. It's very useful for creating a primary key for a small table. It's a little risky for large tables. It's absolutely awful for using as an actual data field. He | |
