Hello,
i've been googling and searching forums here, but so far no luck, hopefully someone here can better assist me.
i've installed Community Builder 1.2.2, but need to get a custom user ID or account number.
so basically, if a customer registers on the site, he is assigned a number (ABC001 for example) and the following registration get ABC002 .... ABC003 and so forth! but this needs to be done automatically and be able to export in the csv file.
Exporting users will be the easy task as you can use CB Juice to export a CSV of your users. However, the field you're needing does not exist in CB. You'll need to create a new fieldtype plugin or just a new plugin all together that utilizes CB triggers for onAfterUserRegistration to generate and store to database the number. Please see tutorials in signature for further information on trigger usage. You may also see document subscriber available ajax text field or file field plugins for fieldtype plugin examples.

OK, i'm reading your words but it's just confusing me more ... instead of editing/adding to the CB core, isn't there a way to utilize the "username" side of it to do what i want? ie autogenerate the next available "account number" and use that?
No, what you need is a new fieldtype (like text, integer, radio, etc...) that will allow creation of a field in Field Management that does exactly what you're needing. What you're wanting is not provided by CB out of the box.
