CREATE TABLE [EmailDeployment]( [EmailDeploymentKey] [bigint] NULL, [ProgramID] [int] NULL, [CampaignID] [int] NULL, [EmailAssetID] [int] NULL, [ProgramName] [varchar](255) NULL, [EmailAssetName] [varchar](255) NULL, [EmailType] [varchar](100) NULL, [SendDate] [datetime] NULL, [StartDate] [datetime] NULL, [Channel] [varchar](100) NULL, [TagType] [varchar](100) NULL, [TagValue] [varchar](100) NULL, [ProcessedInd] [char](1) NULL, [Reporting_period] [varbinary](6) NULL, [Activity_Month] [int] NULL, [Activity_Year] [int] NULL )
And this is the error I get
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'ID'. table 'dbo.NewFarmreachTables'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

Are there any DDL triggers defined on the instance you are trying to create the table?

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence

The absence of consumable DDL, sample data and desired results is, however, evidence of the absence of my response

~~And how does the table above relate to the error?~~

Never mind, brain was not in gear.

After disabling triggers, it's working.

You would be better troubleshooting the trigger though, rather than disabling it. The trigger will be there for a reason, and if you can't create tables, it would seem it's miss performing.

Why, on this good green Earth, would you disable a trigger that you know nothing about?

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
