Task numbering reset?
I am getting started creating our first project within VSTS and adding in Tasks. Because of testing the system and such we have added and deleted many tasks, bugs and such items. When I go to create the first actual real task the number is now at 84. Can I reset the numbering some how so if I delete this entry and restart the numbering would start over?
Thanks in advance!

Actually, this can't be done without reinstalling the server. The numeric ids for work items are global to the entire Team Foundation Server. Once a number is used, it is never used again for a new work item.
In general, the id is used for identification but should not be expected to live in any certain range (other than the positive integer range :))
Hope that helps answer your question,
