Identity Column - DTS

Mar 27, 2001

Having an identity column in target table, how do I use SQL 7 DTS ?

In Import wizard, I chose 'ignore' in source, checked Enable Indenity Insert - DTS failed with a msg like - a column cannot have NULL...

In DTS package, had Fast load and Enable Indenity checked - no luck !

Unchecked Enable identity, do luck.

What would be the standard procs for this since this sounds like a very common
senario.
What I am expecting is to insert from source and SQL would take care identity column automatically.
Appreciate your help very much !

I have table of three column first column is an ID column. However at creation of the table i have not set this column to auto increment. Then i have copied 50 rows in another table to this table then set the ID column values to zero.

How To Use Identity On Non-identity Column (with Concurrence)

Aug 1, 2014

I'm working with a third-party database (SQL Server 2005) and the problem here is the following:

- There are a bunch of ETL processes that needs to insert rows on a table (let's call this table T) and at the same time, an ERP (owner of T) is up and running (reading, updating and inserting on T).

- The PK of T is an Integer.

Today all ETL processes uses (select max(ID) + 1 from T) to insert new rows, so just picture the scenario. It is a mess! Everyday they get duplicate key error when 2 or more concurrent processes are trying to insert a row (with the max) at the same time.

Considering that I can't change the PK, what is the best approach to solve this problem?

To sum up:

* I need to have processes in parallel inserting on T

* I can't change anything on T

* The PK is NOT an Identity

How To Refer A Column When The Referencing Column Is An Identity Column

Oct 16, 2006

Hi all,

The requirement is to have a table say 'child_table', with an Identity column to refer another column from a table say 'Parent_table'..

i cannot implement this constraint, it throws the error when i execute the below Alter query,

ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id)
REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE CASCADE

the error thrown is :
Failed to execute alter table query: 'ALTER TABLE child_table ADD CONSTRAINT
fk_1_ct FOREIGN KEY (child_id) REFERENCES parent_table (parent_id) ON DELETE
CASCADE '. Message: java.sql.SQLException: Cascading foreign key 'fk_1_ct' cannot be
created where the referencing column 'child_table.child_id' is an identity column.

any workarounds for this ?

Identity Column

Feb 29, 2000

I have a table that has a field that will not accept null values. I was trying to create a new table with a new field that would accept null values. I would then drop the original table and rename the new table. The problem is my key field has the Identity column (Autonumber) turned on. This allows the recordID to be automatically generated. Is there anyway to bypass the Identity Column feature and still keep it there future records? I already tried the "with Nocheck Clause" but does not work.

Identity Column.

Apr 9, 2006

Kudos to y'all! On most of my tables, I'm using a column of data type numeric and properties set as Identity with no replication. Now I know that it can handle only a length of 9 and obviously not nullable. Now by length of 9, does it mean in bytes or literal digits. If it is, then that would mean that it would reach only up to 999,999,999. What happens then if it reaches that digit?

RDA With Identity Column.

Nov 6, 2006

Hi Everyone:

I am new to Mobile programming. I am now working on a mobile project. I encounter an issue when I sync the data:

cause I can't modify the schema, so I have to use RDA instead of Merge replication on sql server 2005.

However, There is an identiy column on each table I will pull them down to local mobile database. And I will use those identity columns to connect tables. Even worse, the photo's new name will combine the photoID which is an identity column. There would an issue, if i sync data, the photoID would be same on different local mobile databases. And there would be generate same identity value when users sync data.

How can I avoid those issues? If you have any good ideas, please help me out so that I can meet the project deadline.

Thanks

Updating Identity Column

Sep 18, 2007

Please excuse my ignorance.  I've researched this and it appears I am asking to do something that is ridiculous, so please let me know what is wrong with my design (or my brain).  I'd like to update an ID number in a table.  It is an identity column.  In my solution I'm adding a lot of new entries into my table and deleting old ones.  Call me anal, but It's driving me nuts that my ID numbers are growing so large so quickly and that I have so many unused ID's.  If you were to look over my data ID's they would be something like 1,3,45,78,88,89,103,140,219.  What I'm trying to do is renumber my data so that my data currently at say ID# 1067 can be moved to the unused ID#2, etc.  So I either need a way to update an Identity column...or I need a way find the lowest unused number among a list of ID's.  So is there anyway to achieve what I am trying to do?  I see this guy had my same OCD issue (without a solution) :-(

Identity Column Little Problem

Jan 15, 2008

Hi.
I had searched the problem regarding the identity column. I am not sure how to solve it in another way round.
As you see, when i tried to set column, ID to be auto identity increment, 1 and identity seed, 1.
When i add a record, it work, it show correctly from ID 1,2,3,4,5 and go on.
When i delete a record ID 5, i add another record, it does not display correctly. etc, ID 1,2,3,4,6,7, ID 5 was missing because it was removed.
Can it possible to replace ID5 with new record after i delete ID5, as i want ID number to work this way, etc from ID 1,2,3,4,5,6 and go on without missing ID?
Is there any way to keep in order from ID 1,2,3,4,5,6 ?
