Im so Close but I Cant Quit Make It Happen

I'm hoping you can point me to the right developer course that shows how to add a sequential number (starting at 1) on an order form where each line item starts at 1 and increments as you add line items. I want the number saved in a table like you have in the above video but I want the numbers generated as you add new line items and renumbered if a line item is deleted. I've watched the Automatic Record Numbering video and DCount works great but how do you get that number saved to a table if it is not bound to a field?  Would Access Developer 22 teach me how this could be done?

Thanks for the speedy response Juan! I've watched that video multiple times and it works great. My problem is getting that number into a field in the table.
In the extended cut of the Numbering Form Items a recordsetClone is used and that works great but you have to close and open the form for the numbers to show up. Maybe the code can go in a different event to show up as records are entered?

Add a field to the underlying table for LineNumber. Use an AfterUpdate event and update the LineNumber field in the table to the number shown on your form. I have not tried this but it is a place to start.
