In Oracle, I've always used sequences - Access has some sort of auto increment field, IIRC. It's probably better to use that feature.

The use of auto-increment fields as artificial keys is controversial. Some DB gurus excoriate the practice in favor of semantically valid keys.

Even if you favor it, there are considerations, such as coordinating values through an unload and reload of the data. Be careful.
