How do I add a row to when a column is read only? I think this issue I am having is because I am using an ID field (column) that is automatically generated and incremented whenever a new row is added in Microsoft SQl Server Management Studio, I cannot manually change an ID field and it appears a different (grayer) color. Somehow, once, after I entered all the other items in the row and hit "Enter" on my keyboard, I managed to have a row added and the ID field was automatically generated. The problem is that it did not seem to add it out of sequence. I do not know why it would be 159 and not 157I deleted the row and tried again. This time, it gave me an error:When I try to edit the field by hand, it seems i am not allowed to:Please advise.I am using SQL Server 2008 R2Here are the version numbers:Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 10.50.2500.0Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 10.50.2500.0Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 6.1.7601.17514Microsoft MSXML 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 9.0.8112.16421Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.5466Operating System 6.1.7601 |

are you sure its not an identity column ?Also why are you adding the records through GUI? why not use INSERT t-sql statement instead?------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/https://www.facebook.com/VmBlogs |
