| Is there a way to select a document in a sql table by some doc id number? What I am asking is this:Does SQL assign some sort of doc id to each doc in a table so that you can put the doc number in your select stmt and retrieve on doc id? |

What do you mean by "document" ? Or are you referring to a record in a table ? SQL Server does not assign any ID number, you have to create a column in the table to do that. You can defined the column as an IDENTITY and an number will be auto assign when a record is inserted

| If you are asking: does sql server store some sort of unique reference to each row? It does internally but that won't help you.I think you should read up on surrogate keys.Charlie===============================================================Msg 3903, Level 16, State 1, Line 1736The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION |
