you want to completely drop that table?
You can make a .dbs file that will work with mod_dbsetup.asp
just create a new file and name it something like droppmtable.dbs (or dbs_droppmtable.asp depending on what version of mod_dbsetup.asp you are using)
Here is what to put in the file:
Drop PM Table [DROP] PM [END] |

I already tried that and it didn't work, I thought I missed something, not even an error. I really only need to get autonumber on the M_ID field. I didn't care about loosing the PM's I already lost 2 weeks of posts & 30 members.

Do you have access to your database? What are you using? Access? MS SQL?
If Access, Access97 or Access2000? |

If you have Microsoft Access, you can open the database and set it to autonumber.
Also, you can use something like TableEditor as well.
Other than that, dropping the table and readding it is the only other way I know of. |

Access will not let you autonumber a field if it contains data.
