In this post, I will explain about the IDENTITY column into table in SQL Server.
In my previous posts, I explained STUFF Function, LEN Function, UNICODE Function, LEFT Function, CHARINDEX Function, CHAR Function, ASCII Function, Simple script to backup all SQL Server databases, Table-Valued Parameters and some other articles related to SQL Server.
IDENTITY column is an auto incrementing column provided by SQL Server. SQL Server will take care of incrementing this column automatically.This is much like an AutoNumber field in Microsoft Access or a sequence in Oracle.
