| The error message is pretty much self-describing. Have a look in BOL for "SET IDENTITY_INSERT"You are aware that this value will cause an INT overflow?--Frankhttp://www.insidesql.de |

| Identity column is auto incrementing column. You should not try to add value to that column until you set SET IDENTITY_INSERT tableName ON Madhivanan |
