If I delete all of the records in a table I want to reset the Auto-Enter Serial Number ID field to 1 (one). Also, if I only delete some of the records I would like the serial number to be reset to the max of the ID + 1. I feel like I saw this script somwhre but cannot seem to locate it.

You did see it somewhere - in the help

the script is "Set Next Serial Value"

From fm7 help:

Go to Record/Request/Page [Last]

Set Next Serial Value [Table1::Invoice ID; Table1::InvoiceID + 1]

hope that helps,

sincerely

you can try use a count:

SerialNumber, calc, = Count+1

Count, number, =0

and a scritp "Reset"= Set Field Count="0"

your serial number begin in 1, and will being increased, when you reset by the script, has a new begin to 0.

Just try.

sorry, you need 2 scripts to make the count.

or when you make a new record, on the new record script add, SetField(Count)=Count+1

and will being increased too.

i hope help you.
