How do I reset the incremental identity field to zero? And is it possible to reset it for all fields in all tables in one hit? This is of value when testing as I clean out all data and want to reset all identity fields.Thank you very much you very kind and helpful people! |

DBCC CHECKIDENT, look in Books Online for details.quote: And is it possible to reset it for all fields in all tables in one hit?
You can only have one identity column per table.quote: This is of value when testing as I clean out all data and want to reset all identity fields.
If you use TRUNCATE TABLE it will automatically reset the identity to the seed value. See Books Online for more details. |
