Will Sql server 2008 have generators?
Hi,
I Prefer to work with generators instead of AutoInc fields. Sql servers is the only Database I Know that does not have generators. Does the 2008 server will have generators,like all other databases? |

I guess you mean "sequences" as in Oracle and DB2? There is no special sequence object in SQL Server 2008 but it's easy to implement yourself. In fact it's not much different to the method used in Oracle anyway, you just have to create a proc to do it. -- David Portas |

What, exactly, is a generator - and how does it vary from an identity field?
