Hi Joe,

There are lots of ways that something like that COULD BE done but you'd have
to specify what use you intend to make of such a record number before
knowledgeable Access developers are likely to respond.

Access records are stored UNORDERED in a table. Therefore they have no
natural record number. You can view them in some order by using a query but
the order can change on subsequent views due to additions and deletions.

Please post back specifying what higher purpose that record number was
intended to serve.
