Problems With IDENTITY_INSERT

Mar 27, 2008

Hey Everyone,

I'm trying to copy the data from one table to another while preserving the identity keys, but I can't seem to get past this error message. Here's the SQL:

SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Cms_MenuItems_Preview ON

INSERT INTO dbo.Cms_MenuItems_Preview
SELECT Id, [Name], Url, Parent, IsActive, SortIndex
FROM dbo.Cms_MenuItems

SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.Cms_MenuItems_Preview OFF


and the error message is:
Msg 8101, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
An explicit value for the identity column in table 'dbo.Cms_MenuItems_Preview' can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

IDENTITY_INSERT Is Set To OFF

Dec 5, 2005

I am trying to insert a new record to a table in my application created by VWD Express. I get beack the responce "Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Tradersa' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF" . I have a key record in the table which I would like to increment automatically as I add records so I have set the is identity value to true and both the identity seed and increment to 1.
I have done a fair bit or searching but do not know how to set the table value of IDENTITY_INSERT to ON. Is this as the table is set up or as the record is about to be added? I beleive I should set this when I add the record, but do not know how to in VWD.
Any help would be most welcome. Many thanks in advance

SET IDENTITY_INSERT

Mar 17, 2000

The SQL Server 7 documentation says "SET IDENTITY_INSERT permissions default to all users".

I run this command:

SET IDENTITY_INSERT database.dbo.tablename ON

I am getting an error

Server: Msg 8104, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The current user is not the database or object owner of table

1) Is this an error in the documentation?

2) If so, is there a way I can grant rights to a non-dbo account to perform this?

Thanks

Identity_insert?

Nov 11, 2007

I need to archive from one table to another but the new table, which is a duplicate of the old one, won't allow inserts into the ID column.
I am using:
set identity_insert soldVehicles on
INSERT INTO soldVehicles
SELECT *
FROM vehicles
Where sent2sold = 'yes'
but I get this error:
Error -2147217900


An explicit value for the identity column in table 'soldVehicles' can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON.

set identity_insert soldVehicles on
INSERT INTO soldVehicles
SELECT *
FROM vehicles
Where sent2sold = 'yes'

As I have turned ID_insert ON it must be the column list?...
not sure what to do next.

IDENTITY_INSERT

Apr 23, 2008



I have a table where IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF. I also have one stored procedure that I need to run that requires IDENTITY_INSERT to be set to ON. The only problem is the users who run the stored procedure are not owners of the table and are getting the error "The current user is not the database or object owner of table ... Cannot perform SET IDENTITY_INSERT" Is there a way to use the IDENTITY_INSERT command without being the owner of the object?

SET IDENTITY_INSERT For SQL CE And SQL ME

Sep 30, 2007



Hi,

I have Product table in SQL Server 2005 with Primary key ProductID. This is column with Identity set so the values for this column is auto-generated. I also have Orders table has a key that is foreign key to table Products. Now my dev environment has SQL ME whereas the deployment will be done on SQL CE.

Now I have a requirement where we want to synchronize the master tables from SQL Server with the device. For this we want to have the same identity values on the device. When I try to issue SET IDENTITY_INSERT Products ON on SQL ME it does not work. Is there any way I can set the identity ON on the SQL Mobile Edition?

Also another question I have is: Is SET IDENTITY_INSERT supported on SQL Compact Edition?

Regards,
vnj

SET IDENTITY_INSERT

Mar 24, 2006

We have created an "AdminUser" with the bare minimum rights for the activites it will need to do. One thing the "AdminUser" will need to do is a "SET IDENTITY_INSERT ON/OFF".

I understand that for this user to be able to do this they will need ddl_admin rights. But that gives them all kinds of permission that I don't want this user to have.

Is there a specific permission I can give the user so they can do the "IDENTITY_INSERT"?

I tried "GRANT create table to AdminUser" but that didn't work. I tried "GRANT alter any database DDL trigger to AdminUser" but that didn't work either. I'm looking for something more specific than "ddl_admin".

Thanks.

When IDENTITY_INSERT Is Set To OFF. -- LINQ

Jan 21, 2008

I'm new to ASP/VS/Linq and I'm having a small problem.
 I have one table setup in SQL Server Express 2005 through Visual Studio 2008.  The table name is "Users" and has three columns (accountID, userName, email).  AccountID is the primary key and set to auto incriment.  I've added a couple of records by hand and it works.
I have a single form with a button, a label, and two text boxes.  The button code is below.  After entering some fake data that does not already exist in the database and clicking the button I get this.
Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Users' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.
I understand that it is trying to insert something into the accountID field but I don't understand why since I'm only providing a username and e-mail address to insert.
Your help is greatly appreciated.protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MyDatabaseDataContext db = new MyDatabaseDataContext();
var query = from u in db.Users
where u.email == txtEmail.Text
select u;

var count = query.Count();
if (count == 0)
{
//Create a new user object.
User newUser = new User();

newUser.username = txtUsername.Text;
newUser.email = txtEmail.Text;

//Add the user to the User table.
db.Users.InsertOnSubmit(newUser);
db.SubmitChanges();
}
else
{
Label1.Text = txtEmail.Text + " already exists in the database.";

Identity_Insert Error

Apr 21, 2008

Hi all. This is my first post to these forums and I am a newbie. I am using SQL server 2005 and I have written a procedure to insert the data in new row. My procedure runs and executes well, but does not insert a record in my DB table. Instead I get a message in the debugger window that I need to turn ON the Identity Insert property for the tables. But after searching for a while in the IDE, I could not find any such property. So I need to know what went wrong here. Also, I am using ASP.NET to connect to the database and I found out an article on web explaining the way to set the property to ON through my ASP.NET application. But, I would also like to know how to set that property to ON through SQL management studio. Also, my primary key is not null; I am also passing the primary key value and it is unique. Please let me know a remedy for this.



Thank you.

IDENTITY_INSERT Problem

Jul 20, 2005

Hi, I am having a problem with IDENTITY_INSERT command with MSDE 2000 (ADO2.8) in that I cannot insert a specific value to an identity field. (linesbelow with >>> are code lines. I am using Python, but the syntax should beabout the same as VBScript)First, I create an ADO Connection and create my table.[color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> c = win32com.client.Dispatch('ADODB.Connection')[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> dsn = 'DRIVER=SQL[/color][/color][/color]Server;UID=myID;Trusted_Connection=Yes;Network=DBM SSOCN;APP=Microsoft DataAccess Components;SERVER=SERVERINSTANCE;"'[color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> c.Open(dsn)[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> sql = 'CREATE TABLE Table_Name ('[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> sql += 'ID_Field INTEGER PRIMARY KEY IDENTITY(1,1), '[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> sql += 'Field_2 nchar(50) NOT NULL, '[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> sql += 'Field_3 FLOAT DEFAULT 0.0)'[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> c.Execute(sql)[/color][/color][/color]This works fine. Then, I attempt to allow insertion into the ID_Field.[color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> c.Execute("SET IDENTITY_INSERT Table_Name ON")[/color][/color][/color]This seems to work in that it does not throw an error and gives a returnof -1. Then I open a Recordset[color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> r = win32com.client.Dispatch('ADODB.Recordset')[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> r.Open('Table_Name', c, 2, 4)[/color][/color][/color]Last, I am attempt to add a record to the recordset with an explicit ID,[color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> r.AddNew()[/color][/color][/color][color=blue][color=green][color=darkred]>>> r.Fields.Item('ID_Field').Value = 45[/color][/color][/color]but this fails with the error of"Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DBstatus value, if available. No work was done."Even worse, if I now try to set the identity field to allow inserts again,Updating() causes an error that I must use an explicit value for ID_Field,but if I try to give it one, it fails with the above error. I have todestroy the recordset object at this point to get any further.I am told that SET IDENTITY_INSERT only remains active for one statement andthus must be combined with the insert, but I do not know how to do this.There is a similar sounding bug w/ SQL 7(http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...b;EN-US;253157), but thereis no indication that it affects newer versions of the DB. Does anyone haveany suggestions or ideas?Thanks for any help,-d

SET IDENTITY_INSERT Tablename ON

Sep 16, 2006

I know there has already been a thread on this, but I want to push some about it.

In SQL Server, there is a command "SET IDENTITY_INSERT tablename ON".

That allows you to update IDENTITY columns, or do INSERTs that include IDENTITY columns. Although a work-around was given for this in the other thread (reset the IDENTITY seed to the desired value before each INSERT), that is a major pain.

In my database, I have a table that tracks charitable donors. They have a donornum, that is an IDENTITY column, and a year. Together, the donornum and the year form the primary key. Each year end, a copy is made of all donor records in one year, to form the next year's donors. They have to keep the same donornum, but they get a new year value of course. Adding new donors uses the donornum normally, incrementing the IDENTITY donornum value.

The advantage of this is that you can match up one year's donors with the previous year's, by joining on donornum. But I need there to be separate records, so they can have separately updated addresses, annual pledge amounts, etc.

Is there any way the SET IDENTITY_INSERT feature can be added to SQL Everywhere, or some other approach can be found that is less laborious than the existing work-around? (The problem with it is that if you have hundreds of donors to copy, you have to do one ALTER TABLE to reset the identity seed for each donor insert for the new year.)

Thanks.

IDENTITY_INSERT On/Off In Sql Compact

Dec 11, 2006

Hi,

Im working in a project that uses sql server compact. While migrating some data from another database I needed to "Turn off" the identity insert :

SET IDENTITY_INSERT <tablename> OFF

and set it back to "ON" after the migration was completed. Unfortunately SQL Server Compact is giving me the following error:

There was an error parsing the query. [ Token line number = 1,Token line offset = 5,Token in error = @@IDENTITY_INSERT ]

Im i doing something wrong or this instruction is not supported by the Compact edition.

Does anybody knows another way to do this?

Thank you

Identity Field And IDENTITY_INSERT Is Off

ok, so i get this error,
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'TBL_LAPTOP_BOOKINGS' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.

i ran SET INDENTITY_INSERT TBL_LAPTOP_BOOKINGS ON before i ran my script... and i also checked, we are running SQL 2000 with service pack four, because of the cursor error....

so im just wondering, is there anyway to make identity_insert to always be on, or any other way to have a unique id in my booking_id field??

Thanks Guys, Justin

SET IDENTITY_INSERT: Devil In The Details...

Feb 13, 2006

Need to ask this, 'cause as ya'all know I'm a GUID sort of guy with a sever IDENTITY crisis.

Got a client that erroneously deleted some records from a table with an IDENTITY key. We have a backup that we can restore to a new db to isolate the records that need to be reloaded. Question is, when we set IDENTITY INSERT to ON temporarily to reload the affected records, does the db need to be in single-user mode, or will it go merrily on creating IDENTITY values for new records if the db is in use during our fix? It is a 24/7 production db with web users around the country/world.

Linked Server And IDENTITY_INSERT

Feb 2, 2004

I need to change IDENTITY_INSERT on remote server. I use Linked Server and everything is good except that I can not use IDENTITY_INSERT.
First I try with
IF (IDENT_SEED('[Server IP].[database].dbo.[Table]') IS NOT NULL )SET IDENTITY_INSERT [Server IP].[database].dbo.[Table] ON
but I recived error message:
The object name '....' contains more than the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 2.

Second I try
to make stored procedure (sp) at Linked Server which have only one line
IF (IDENT_SEED('[Table]') IS NOT NULL )
SET IDENTITY_INSERT [Table] ON
and I called this sp from sp which is on my local SQL Server. Everything is ok but IDENTITY_INSERT is still OFF. Probably there is a store procedure scope after which IDENTITY_INSERT is set automaticly to OFF.

Any help.

IDENTITY_INSERT, Is It A Good Idea?

Sep 14, 2006

Hi,

Today I discovered this command completely by accident and thought that ther are several places which we could use it in our apps.

Talking with a colleague, he is not to sure as it new to him too.

By using this to recover lost identity values, would this have any possible adverse effects on the table, indexes etc.

I can see potential problems when constraints are set between tables/keys. Anyone with any experience using this good and bad would be useful to hear.

Thanks

IDENTITY_INSERT Problem When Using With EXECUTE Statement.

Apr 21, 2008

Hi,

I am trying to copy data from DB1.VersionNumber to DB2.VersionNumber (Where VersionNumber on both the database have same schema),where the table contains an IDENTITY column. so i want to maintain same IDENTITY to that of source db when copying to DB2.

But when i am executing the following statments


USE DB2

DECLARE @CommandString NVARCHAR(2500)

DECLARE @ConstructString1 NVARCHAR(2500)

SELECT @CommandString = 'SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.VersionNumber ON'

SELECT @ConstructString1 = 'INSERT INTO VersionNumber([VersionNumberEndDate],[VersionNumberID],[VersionNumberName],[FiscalYearNumber],[RowGUID]) SELECT [ChangedBy],[ChangedDateTime],[CreatedDateTime],[VersionNumberEndDate],[VersionNumberID],[VersionNumberName],[FiscalYearNumber] FROM MapssR14SR2.dbo.VersionNumber'

EXECUTE (@CommandString)

EXECUTE (@ConstructString1)

i am getting error saying
Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'ExchangeRate' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF

But if i try to execute without EXECUTE :


USE DB2

SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.VersionNumber ON

INSERT INTO VersionNumber([VersionNumberEndDate],[VersionNumberID],[VersionNumberName],[FiscalYearNumber])

SELECT [VersionNumberEndDate],[VersionNumberID],[VersionNumberName],[FiscalYearNumber] FROM DB1.dbo.VersionNumber

SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.VersionNumber OFF

i am able to execute successfully.

Can anybody please explain me what is problem in my code. Why when executing thru EXECUTE statments throwing error, and no errors when executing directly ? Is there any restriction is stetments when using EXECUTE?
I tried using

EXECUTE sp_executesql @CommandString
EXECUTE sp_executesql @ConstructString1
But same error is coming up.

Plese help me.

 My question is how to get IDENTITY_INSERT Incriment Primary Key ID  roll back when the application fails.
Using TransactionScope with single connection in DataObject. I am trying to insert row in two dataTable  using its own tableAdapter (two tableAdapter).
I have Product table with ProductID primary key with incriment identity.  and that ProductID is used to insert row in ProductHistory Table. Lets say Product table has the last ProductID=8 (8 rows) and the next ProductID will be 9.
When I insert row in both table and if the second table insert fails both gets roll back (which is good). but when I insert again another time the Product ID=10 not 9. Is there any way to roll back the ProductID in Product table so when i insert next time it has incriment number instead of gap.
