IncludeIdentityValues Property

This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.

The IncludeIdentityValuesproperty controls the handling of existing values for a column with the Microsoft SQL Server identity property when data is copied to the SQL Server table.

Syntax

object
.IncludeIdentityValues [= value]

Parts

  • object
    An expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list

  • value
    TRUE or FALSE

Data Type

Boolean

Modifiable

Read/write

Prototype (C/C++)

HRESULT GetIncludeIdentityValues(LPBOOL pRetVal);
HRESULT SetIncludeIdentityValues(BOOL NewValue);

Remarks

If TRUE, SQL Distributed Management Objects (SQL-DMO) runs a SET IDENTITY_INSERT ON statement when the ImportData method of a Table object is called.

If FALSE, SQL-DMO ignores any data values present for a column with the identity property. SQL Server generates data values for the column by using the column's setting for identity seed and increment. The default is FALSE.
