I've procrastinated long enough; I'm starting to learn Access now. I know a
little actually, but not much. Anyway, I'm practicing with the NWind DB. I
exported each table to an Excel sheet and then tried to import each Excel
sheet to a new DB that I just created. A bit silly, but it's really helping
me to learn. I though I had a handle on it, but when I tried to import the
'Orders' table, it comes in kind of weird. Under Field Name 'OrderID', the
Data Type is Number, but I want it to be AutoNumber so I can create
Relationships. I can't seem to import this Table as AutoNumber and I can't
copy/paste the data from DataType Number to DataType AutoNumber after I
insert a row in Design View. Can someone please explain how to get DataType
AutoNumber to override DataType Number
