ongoing AutoNumber from different forms

Dear All,

I'm using an AutoNumber field to create ongoing numbers for records in table "contact".
Now I need to use 3 different forms for adding new contacts and I recognized that the numbers are not ongoing anymore.
Is there a simple way to use AutoNumber fields and avoiding the creation of records with the same AutoNr indipendent of the form?

Thanks in advance.

BR,
Oli

You can't use a nuAutoNumber in this case. You would probably have to create a separate table in which a consecutive number is incremented.
