Prolly easy, I'm sure... We are migrating from one site to another...hopefully propogating this weekend. If I want to start off with another order number other then one, where would I change that? I'd like to start semi close to where we left off.

Hi ISTNC! Adjust this under Store Management Tools, General Settings, Store Settings --> Order Number Increase --> choose whatever number you want to start with. Best wishes, Anna, Sweden |

Just a note. If you are copying an exsiting SQL database, the Order Number Increase will only add to whatever the current sequential ID # is in the orders table. For example, if you have been testing and already placed 10 orders, and you set your Order Number increase to be 1000, then the next order placed will show as 1011. Even if you clear out your old orders, SQL retains the next available sequential ID. If you want to reset the identity value for a SQL table, check out the DBCC CHECKIDENT function in "SQL Server books online". ------------- NetProfits Internet Consulting Certified ProductCart Developer http://www.nicwebdesign.com" rel="nofollow - Our Site |

Okay, thanks! I didn't know that, but it isn't a problem for me. I just wanted to differentiate from one site to the next. ------------- Gwen Roberts Integrated System Technologies, Inc. http://8.7.225.154/storefront.htm (til live) |

| But note that the Order Number Increase doesn't REALLY change the idOrder in the database tables. It just adds the number to the actual order number for display in the control panel and in the e-mails/reports. If you're going to do any direct access of the database, or importing a file of exported order data into a warehouse management system, be aware of this. |
