 * Hi I need to reset the table ids to zero. Meaning i deleted all the tables but
   when i do an import it starts where it left off. so if I had 50 tables when i
   import it starts it at 51. I deleted all the table and uninstalled the plugin
   and that doesnt help. How can i reset it the table numbers?

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
 * If you deleted all tables already anyways, the easiest way to achieve this would
   be to reset TablePress completely, by using the “Uninstall” button in the lower
   part of the “Plugin Options” screen of TablePress (while it’s activated). This
   will delete all TablePress data from the database, including the counter for 
   the table IDs. After that, just re-activate TablePress on the WordPress Plugins
   screen, and you’ll be starting fresh.
 * Regards,
    Tobias
