Hi,

could you please explain your requirement in more detail?

In order to reset an autonumber  - you will have to change the field type to text and reset its value.

I would suggest you to keep the field type as text in case you wish to reset its value everyday and have the value incremented through a trigger so it behaves like an autonumber.
