Recreating A Deleted Record

Hello, I've got a table that looks something like this:
deviceID | name | ...
1 | a
2 | b
3 | c
4 | d
6 | e

where deviceID is an autonumber. Clearly device 5 got deleted, but if I go to "add record" I end up adding record 7. There are still other records in the db which need to link to device5, and I have all the info needed to recreate them, how do I override the autonumber and create a record with a specific deviceID?

Thanks,
-Eric
