| Sorry I was wrong. just tried dropping an unwanted db and creating a new db and it reclaimed the id of the dropped databse. So as it stands it will give the same id to another db------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SQL Server MVPhttp://visakhm.blogspot.com/ |
