I just downloaded the employee directory asp and after entering all the data to the database it creates a autonumber id in access for alll entries and that displays as the employees #. How can I change that to the real employee numbers? If I change it from auto to text in the database everything gets screwed. What would be the easies way to resolve this issue. thanks for your help!

Create a new field specifically for the Emp ID. The id you are refereing to has nothing to do with the real emp id. This is just for indexing purposes and does not reflect the real id. Leave it as is.
I hope this answer is not to short for you but that's basically it.

Why does it display on the results page. That is confusing to our users.it displays emp# ? I need to hide that and put a field that says payroll #. thanks for your help.

Remember, this is just a demo. You can easily hide it from the result page if you want by choosing hidden as the field type. But you whould still need it as this is the index to your table. Ok?
