hello,

When i insert my excel file in acces for making a new table. I can never get my autonumbering equal to my normal numbering from my original excel file.

How can i get these two numbers equal, so that i can work with the autonumbering instead of my excel numbering. (the order of the numbering is important).

wvg,

Sls

It might help if you gave us a mock up of your Excel data and the method (or VBA) you are currently using to get your info to Access.

I have an article on my site on getting info to Access from Excel via ADO... I've never had an issue with it writing the data out of order...

Export a Range of Excel Data to a Database (http://www.excelguru.ca/node/18)

the method that i have used:
I have used a standard tool that is in acces to insert a new tabel from a existing file(here a excel file): "file>get extern data>Import from excel.
when i insert the table i have put the key on my kolom that is my index in excel.
Than i have added a new kolom with the autonumbering.
and when i look at my original kolom from my excel file and my newly insert autonumbering do not correspondant on al rows.

i have put a part of my table in attachement. I you check the numbers 5390,...., you will see that they do n't correspondant.

wvg,

Okay, so at 5362 it goes out of whack. I don't see any code in the database though, and it's hard to tell what's going on without that or the excel file you are pulling from.
