I think that the answer “You cannot set IDENTITY_INSERT on for more than one table in a database” should be changed to You cannot set IDENTITY_INSERT on for more than one table at the same time in a SESSION.

Adi
To clarify further I would think
You cannot set IDENTITY_INSERT on for more than one table AT A TIME in a SESSION.

You want to correct a problem with two of your tables with keys created by identity values.
Personally I think this implies that there is erroneous data to be removed before an insert.
Inserting without deleting will simply add data without rectifying the problem. (generalisation)

Does anybody else but me think that Order_details is designed wrongly? OrderID should be a foreign key to Orders.OrderID. The natural key of Order_Details is OrderID and LineItemID which does not require an IDENTITY column at all.;)

hmmm, over-think question we are. IDENTITY_INSERT is the heart of the question, not design of the tables.
