A make table query should already 'reset' the AutoNumber, since it is going to make a new table. An append query can be used to 'set' numbers within an AutoNumber field, however, it doesn't reset the counter, it can just 'ignore' it. If you delete the data in a table, to resent the AutoNumber counter, compact the database. It will reset the counter (on an incremental AN) to the highest number plus 1 (or 1, if there are no records remaining).
