SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('TravelLog')I get the value 5 back. Now I do this:
SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.TravelLog ON INSERT dbo.TravelLog ( TravelLogID, CityID, StartDate, EndDate ) VALUES (25, 5, '2025-09-12', '2025-09-17') SET IDENTITY_INSERT dbo.TravelLog OFFI now run this code.
DBCC CHECKIDENT(TravelLog) GO INSERT dbo.TravelLog ( CityID, StartDate, EndDate ) VALUES (4, '2025-10-14', '2025-10-17') GOWhat is the value for TravelLogID for the row I inserted for CityID 4 and dates starting on 14 Oct 2025? See possible answers
