Hi Vijay,

You can insert the Identity Column values by enable IDENTITY_INSERT for the table.

Hi Varinder,

I have a requirement that the records may be deleted in between. As if like the Query — “delete from reset_identity where id in (3,4)”. Now, I want my next insert should either fill the position 3 (as it empty) or, the repositioning of the existing records will also be fine… How can get this approach?

Thanks in Advance.
