In The Netherlands we use bankaccountnumbers that need to comply to a test call 'elfproef'. This test evaluates the sum of each number multiplied by the position the number appears in the accountnumber. If the modulos of the sum divided by 11 is zero then the accountnumber is valid. The length of a bankaccountnumber in […]

This is a re-written function that the idea got from yesterday's script. This function used a recursive call to simplify the script.

As many of you know, data driven subscriptions is not a feature available with SQL 2000 RS Standard Edition. However, you can accomplish this using the supplied stored procedure. It may not be as pretty as the version in SQL Enterprise, but this one gets the job done, and it is very ……useful!I have not […]

Specifically, I needed to parse a zip code (5-digit) from a client comments fields where the number was in different positions such as "Customer 999999999 should be at zip code 99999" and "99999 zipcode" and "should be zip code 99999 phone 9999999999". My stored procedure first filters on a [Comments] field string that contains variations […]

The DBCC CHECKIDENT command is used when working with identity values. I have a table with 10 rows in it that looks like this:
TravelLogID CityID StartDate EndDate 1 1 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 2 2 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 3 3 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 4 4 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 5 5 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 6 6 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 7 7 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 8 8 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 9 9 2025-01-11 2025-01-16 10 10 2025-01-11 2025-01-16The docs for DBCC CHECKIDENT say this if I run with only the table parameter: "If the current identity value for a table is less than the maximum identity value stored in the identity column, it is reset using the maximum value in the identity column. " I run this code:
DELETE dbo.TravelLog WHERE TravelLogID >= 9
GO
DBCC CHECKIDENT(TravelLog, RESEED)
GO
INSERT dbo.TravelLog
(
CityID,
StartDate,
EndDate
)
VALUES
(4, '2025-09-14', '2025-09-17')
GO
What is the identity value for the new row inserted by the insert statement above? See possible answers
