import into identity column

  • Am trying to use the Import Data wizard in Mgt Studio to get data from a local 2005 database into a remotely hosted 2005 database. Hit issue with importing into an identity column and understand that way round this is to use a 'keep identity' qualifier - but have no idea how to do this using the wizard.

  • In the Wizard, when you are specifying the mapping between tables from the Source to the Destination, click on Edit and check the check-box that says "Enable Identity Insert".

  • Many thanks - silly of me to miss that!
