Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

An identity column? Why? What purpose does it serve? Under what circumstances would you ever use it?
an Identity column is required for replication, this would be a good reason...

It is? Is that in Books Online somewhere? I'm really curious about this because the normal argument against IDENTITY columns is that they supposedly make a mess in replication.

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.

Sorry i meant a primary key is required for replication, not identity column...

so not really that relevant to the discussion...
