[AccessD] Autonumber problem

Just out of curiosity, does the manual method of resetting the autonumber
seed handle tables where the autonumber is random instead of sequential -
like in a replicated table?

Yup.  However the fact that this happened at all says that somewhere the bug
is striking again.  Either there is an unpatched workstation being used to
C/R the database BE or the bug has resurfaced, which wouldn't surprise me.

BTW, it does not have to do with the BE container revision - 2k, 2k3 etc.
It was a known bug in the C/R itself, thus almost certainly a bug in JET.
