I am unable to uncheck auto increment field in column mapping dialog without it returning next time i open reverse mapping wizard. In the end I had to edit the reversemapping.config file directly. there is a bug.

Hi Web Belief Ltd,
This is by design. Is there any particular reason why you want to change the 'autoinc' setting on the primary key field? If the 'autoinc' setting is set to false, the Key generator for the class is set to 'NONE'. In this case, for inserts the application has to then provide a value for the PK column. Explicitly inserting the value for an autoinc column is not allowed under normal circumstances.

It is bad usability at best. Why put a checkbox on the form, that lets you uncheck it, only for it to do nothing? at least disable the check box. In the end i had to change both setting manually in the config files. There is no decent documentation about this. There are many times when an autoincrement field is not going to be suitable for a table.
