Good day! Need help again here.
I'm having a dilemma here with regards to my DS-160 form, I applied for a tourist visa last January 2017 and submitted a DS-160 for a tourist visa. Now, Im applying for a K1 visa and filled out a new DS-160 form and I already submitted it. 
However, after scheduling an appointment it generates my old DS-160 form. So I cancelled it and now I'm trying to figure out how to change my Application ID to the new one since the system automatically generates my old Application ID.
Does anyone here knows how change my DS-160 Application ID to the new one?

Badly needed help here.

Thank you.

I think all you do is take the confirmation page for the right one to your interview. There’s no way to cancel old ones. Then they’ll use that number to pull it. When you sign up for ais, they ask for ds160 number so enter the right one.

@Billandlhay Have you managed to do anything about your DS? I am in the same position right now. I was searching and I have found this "If you have previously submitted a DS-160 application, you may use that information to complete a new application. You will need the Application ID from your previously submitted application to do this. To access previously submitted application information, click the “RETRIEVE AN APPLICATION” button and follow the instructions. If you use this option to complete a new application please make sure to carefully review to ensure that all information is current and correct." https://ceac.state.gov/genniv/Common/Instructions.aspx

Did some research (which I should have done before asking the question...duhhh).  DS160 "Case number/application ID number" is not an 'A: number.  "USCIS does not assign everyone an A-Number. USCIS creates an Alien Registration Number for every permanent resident. Generally, they do not assign the number to nonimmigrant visitors. Nonimmigrants include anyone that is in the United States on a temporary basis. B1/B2 visas are nonimmigrant visas for visitors."
