updating a field with an auto-seed
Hello

I have a table with 300 records in it. I have a field called Loc_ID that will be my primary key. There are other fields in the table that have data in them.

Since my table is already in alpha order, is there a way I can update my Loc_ID field with the auto numbers?

I wasn't clear so I apologize. I am using SQL Server, so which datatype would it be? I can't use the UniqueIdentifier datatype.

Sorry, It's an int data type, and set the Identity property to Yes.
