the trace shows everything that happens from the moment you created it; it can't show what happened in the past, but if anything deletes again, you now have the tools...

fastest way to fix it is to reseed the value with the next highest value...146 automatically:

dbcc checkident(identicheck,RESEED) --sets to max

i thought that could not happen, but sure enough, this example...

--confirm the view exists so you can select from it:
