Charlie writes "Just curious if there is a way to do maintenance on a DB that uses a unique RecID (incremented by 1) to get rid of the "gaps". For instance when I delete records, even if it is the last record, the number for the next added still goes up. I am just in testing phase for my project, so right now I have 30 or so items with RecID ranging from 1 to about 80. This project when finished however will be used for 10,000+ items. I was hoping to not run into any problems sooner than necessary with too large of RecID

Thanks"
