Often I'm needing to cycle the Autonumber field to cater for changes made to table data. We could really use a simple method to reset the number count for the Autonumber field.

Currently, the only method is to change the field from Autonumber to either Text/Number field, and then change it back again into Autonumber, which then resets the count as desired - but is a pain.

Please also consider other counting methods too, maybe a simple method that allows the user to adjust the base, be it Base 10, Base 16 (hex), and a simple alphanumeric, where select letters can be removed (such as the letter l and I, as not to be confused with 1, and Q and O to avoid mixups with 0.)
