Default Get Rid of Relationship Among "ID" fields

I have several tables with an "ID"autonumber field. There is no
relationship between the ID in one table and the ID in another... I
use the autonumber just to determine the order records were added
in.

When I look at the relationship window, there is no tie among the "ID"
fields, but as I add the tables to make queries, it automatically ties
the ID fields. How can I get rid of this??

Thanks in advance.

Go to ToolsOptions and select the Tables/Queries tab. Uncheck the Enable
AutoJoin option.

In Access 2003, at least, this is controlled by the option "Enable AutoJoin"
on the Tables/Queries tab of the Tools - Options... dialog.
