Resetting Primark keys (ID)

Hey People

First time user and SQL Server novice here.

I've had to delete ALL records from a SQL Server database and the primary key in all of the tables was "Trip_id" which was an automatically generated numeric id.

Now i've started to load the data back into the tables and i would like to reset Trip_ID so that the first record will have the ID of 1, not 8945 like it is at the moment. How can i do this?

Cheers.

You will have to remove (delete) the column from the table, then recreate it.
