Access 2019 version.

In the table, I'm trying to set the primary key as the first row, but it keeps telling me that it won't accept it when I go to save it. What can cause this and how can I fix it? I can't save the table until it's solved. Thank you.

    Does the table already have any data? The two preconditions of a column being the primary key are:

    The values in the column must be distinct.
    The column position cannot be Null (empty) in any row.
    

    If the table has any data does it conform to the above. Also, the column cannot be a long text data type of course.
