"reseting" the fp7-file

[her]

Hallo,

Is there anyone who can tell me if there's a way to reset a project file. With reseting I mean especially these two points (the first one is more important as I could write a script for the second one if there's no built-in function)

- reseting the incrementation back to the "original" value; e.g.: if I use a field with a serial number. At the beginning I set the "next value" to '1'. Than I made 5 new records. Is there a way to reset the value back to '1', without going through each table and changing the "next value" entry for each necessary field manualy?

- is there a built-in function to delete all records (regardless how many tables I used) with "one click of a button"?

I hope someone can help me with this.

In short... no to both questions. You can however script both processes fairly easily.

Try:

Save a Copy As... (Clone)

...oops, only drawbacks are that your static value lists will be lost.

I'm not sure what you're referring to. Custom value lists will not be lost. Fields used as the source of a value list would be considered data, so of course they will be empty.

Global field values are lost too.

... I swear there was some sort of problem with value lists, maybe it was dynamic. I am so lost, just ignore any comments i made lol... I'm gonna go re-read a few things. Sorry again.
