Mind-reading is a great feature to have. This way you know what I want better than me... oh wait; you don't and yet you assumed otherwise anyway

Why don't you just try it and find out for sure instead of being rude to people trying to help. 
BEGIN TRANSACTION
INSERT something INTO table
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION

I do know, and I did tell you to rethink your design.
If you had used Oracle it would have been much worse, Oracle cache the sequences, so if you restart the server you can get a gap of twenty numbers. and if you have a cluster server they won't even be in order.

The new IDENTITY value is generated when a row insert is initiated and will update the table's current identity value even when the transaction is rolled back. In simple terms, it would behave as if no rollback happened.

Thanks guys. Exactly what I needed to find out.

Identity (auto-increment) is not part of the transaction, so isn't rolled back. In your example, the ID for the next call would be 102.

While Shameel and Russel gave you answers it is not the solution, if you are relying on the identity filed to give you sequential information (or any information) your design is WRONG. An ID field has only 1 function, to identify the record.

Hi,
I think You are asking about "IDENTITY" Property in SQL Server right. If you will use IDENTITY while creating table, It will Increment Automatically based on your Starting value and Increment.
For Example,
CREATE TABLE #T1 (ID INT NOT NULL IDENTITY(1,1), Name VARCHAR(12))
INSERT INTO #T1(Name) VALUES('A')
SELECT * FROM #T1
BEGIN TRAN T1
INSERT INTO #T1(Name) VALUES('B')
ROLLBACK TRAN T1
INSERT INTO #T1(Name) VALUES('C')
SELECT * FROM #T1
So Once Identity values is Incremented, In case If Transaction Roll backed also you will get next value only.

I am planning on learning about SQL. However, there seems to be no good quality tutorials that I can find on the internet.
Are there any recommended books for SQL beginners?
Thanks

If you are using SQL Server 2008 or later, I suggest you try T-SQL Fundamentals for Microsoft SQL Server by Itzik Ben-Gan.

I also read articles from http://www.sqlservercentral.com/[^] and they have a good Question of the Day feature that gets emailed to you daily so that you can test your knowledge etc.

You need to decide what start with. Do you want a general overview? To learn to code (T-SQL)? To learn how to be a DBA? Do you want a certificate?
I would go to a bookstore with a good computer section and look at the SQL books. As an example, have a question in mind, say for T-SQL, lookup data types. If you can understand what they say, that book would be high on the possible list.

I can't find the answer to this MySQL question in the documentation:
If I execute "LOCK TABLES" through an ODBC connection, and a different thread already holds a lock on the specific table, does the calling thread block until the lock is acquired, or does the call simply fail and return immediately?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
|
|
|
|
|
I don't know the answer either. (I would assume it waits)
But check if you can use named locks[^] instead, then your application can name the lock and check if another instance have made a lock with the same name or not.
But watch out, there are a lot of pitfalls. So read the manual properly.

I need some help with an SQL query I’ve been asked to create.
Due to lack of communication, an update was done incorrectly and now needs to be fixed (surprise, surprise  ). Each employee has 5 Ben_Codes and the start date for all Ben_Codes needs to be equal to the start date of Ben_Code 1. The dates are not constant so for each employee I need to read Ben_Code 1 record to retrieve start_date and then update Ben_Codes 2 thru 5 with that start_date.
To this point I have done very basic updates using SQL Query and would appreciate any guidance you can provide!!
Emp_id, Ben_Code, start_date
99999 1 10/12/12
99999 2 01/12/13
99999 3 01/12/13
99999 4 01/12/13
99999 5 01/12/13
98989 1 9/15/2012
98989 2 01/12/13
98989 3 01/12/13
98989 4 01/12/13
98989 5 01/12/13
