View 3 RepliesI am developing a asp.net application and i am using SQL Server 2008. I took a IDENTITY column as Record_ID for detail table where i will have trillions of records per year. So just want to ask whats the largest number record id (identity) column can hold and in ASP.NET which data type i should use to handle record id as i am using this id as a reference to update the table data. I don't want to end up being trapped some day.

Now I need to make the id column the identity column, but it already has a lot of null values, how do I auto generate integer values for the null rows?

="it.TRANSACTION_ID
LIKE '%' + @SearchID + '%'"
It tells me LIKE must be of string type. What can I do?
I am facing a problem here. I have a column where the value is equivalent to my identity column's value. For an example, I have a column A store is "ABC0001" and the 0001 is came from a column called Column B which identity on. when a new record inserted and Column B is next identity number and Column A value is "ABC" and add number from Column B.

I am where you "Create" an entry in the table, i have deleted the Id field, as Id is my primary key, and Is Identity = Yes, Identity Increment = 1, Identity Seed = 1.
When i hit the create button, the Id value is being validated, giving an invalid error. If i add the Id column back to the page, and fill in any number and click create, the entry is added to the database, with the Id value incremented (the typed in value does not matter). I believe this must have to do with the Movies.Designer.cs... but not sure how to fix it. Id should not be validated as it auto-incraments, but the model is looking for a Id value..
I want to konw how to start my identity column from 001?

this does not work as it still takes it froom cause 001 and 1 is the same
I have tables:
MAILBOX
MailboxId int PK
MailboxTypeId int FK
MAILBOXTYPES
MailboxTypeId int PK
I can't make relationship between MailboxTypeId in table MAILBOXTYPES and MailboxTypeId in table MAILBOX why ?
i cannot retrieve the new identity value from an inserted record(via DataAdapter.Update) in my DataRow.
I'm using a strong typed Dataset as DAL. The table i want to update is joinded with other tables in the SelectCommand, hence the designer cannot automatically generate the insert-/update-/delete-commands and also it cannot "Refresh the DataTable" automatically. [URL]
I've tried to set AutoIncrement=true/false on the primary-key's DataColumn but the result is the same: last MAX-ID+1 instead of the actual ID the database generated(SQL-Server 2005 EP; pk datatype:int, Is identity:yes, Identity Increment:1).
This will be the wrong value f.e if another instance of the application inserted a record that the first instance yet not knows and therefore generates an ID that already exists.
To retrieve the new identity from db i've appended following to my insert-command's CommandText:
;SELECT CAST (SCOPE_IDENTITY() AS int) AS newIdRMA
Also i've tried to add an Output-Parameter to it's parameter-collection:
This is part of my code that updates the database and sets the new ID(that doesn't work):

I recently moved a .net site from one machine to another, now for some reason one of the stored procedures is throwing an exception when attempting to insert!

BTW, the column in question does have the identity set to Yes in management studio

I have an insert table with identity specification set. And I getthis error. I'm using a stored procedure to store it. How do I correct it. I'm also using a details view on my insert page.

I'd like to have a relationship between two tables.
In the tutorial I am doing I have been requested to change a field in the colums properties of a table. The ID column is currentl displaying NO and NO again for "is aIdentity. I can Highlight the values but cannot change to yes. either in the properties talbe or in the properties window on the right hand side of IDE interface. How do I change that value?

"An explicit value for the identity column in table 'UserActivation' can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON."
In the database one number like a 91-9685748596 and, 2nd number like 9122-9685748596 and another one is 9685748596 .when we are try to formate it using substring function it all are may be9685748596,9685748596,9685748596.Mobile number is assigned as a primary key.so its showing error "Primary key violation".We can not the remove primary key also and there are 50 lack data in our database.

View 4 RepliesI need to insert multiple records using a script.
My table is
Region
(
ID int,
Name varchar(50),
Description varchar(51)
)
One thing I can use is to retrieve the max(ID) from region and store it in a variable and increment the variable sequentially and insert. But, if any other user inserts a record while I am executing this script then max(id) might clash with the id inserted with other user causing my script to fail.
Is there any other option to insert record sequentially base on the highest number in the table.
I am inserting data into Employee table using stored procedure.In employee table EmpNo is identity column.Once i insert data into table stored procedure should EmpNo i.e identitycolumn value.

Resetting IDENTITY column to a new valueDuring application development we always entry some test data also our tester test with test data and as a result if the table contains IDENTITY columns( specially ID column) which incremented to the number of data already entered.
However, when the application goes running with real data to the client and the client want his ID values from starting 1, then we need to RESEED the value of the IDENTITY column of the table after clearing all data. This can be done as bellows:
DBCC CHECKIDENT (TableName, RESEED, 0)
However, can be reseed with any values instead of zero(0) in the above statement.
I have an identity column that increment by 1 on every insert. I have deleted all the rows using delete query but the identity coulumn is still not reseting to zero, how do i reset it, as it was when the table was first created.
