The autoinc field type is a LONG value which can handle integer values i.e. no decimals.  The field holds 4 X 8bits i.e 32 bits.  This means the field can hold (in hexadecimal notation) values up to 0xFFFFFFFF. The decimal equivalent is 4 294 967 295. You shouldn't be running out of numbers any time soon. :-) Mervyn.
