How do I change the ID of a store or user in my admin tool?

Every user account and category has a unique ID. I would like to change this ID number to something else (such as if I have user 1, 2, and 4, I would like to change 4 to a 3). How do I do that?

Thanks,
BP

You would have to edit your database directly, which is not a good idea unless you are thoroughly familiar with all of its workings and tables. Some info is repeated in other tables, and changing it in only one place can cause big problems.
