Yeah, I find that importing is HORRIBLE for everything but actual data values. When I move data over, I like to create the tables via MS SQL Servers "General SQL Scripts" options (No, I don't write my own scripts), making sure to select options for default values and keys. Then once the tables exists, I import the data.

Its fixed. The table was imported to another server and it did not save the ID field as primary/identity YES. It was set to NO. I reset and it worked. But its shows not to assume the import will copy everything exactly.

Try marking it as the primary key of the table as well. .........................

When I insert info into my dbase I get an insert fails error. See below. Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'ID', table 'pc_inventory.dbo.inventory'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The ID filed is setup as an Identity field in SQL. Any ideas please? Seems simple, but I'm stuck in neutral here. Thanks. Insert code is: <CFQUERY name="inventory" datasource="pc_inventory"> INSERT INTO inventory ( department, floor, lname, fname, pcname, phone, password, pcmodel, workgroup, ip, printerip, printer, serialnumber, port, switchport, oldpcnumber, newpcnumber, comments) VALUES ( '#FORM.department#', '#FORM.floor#', '#FORM.lname#', '#FORM.fname#', '#FORM.pcname#', '#FORM.phone#', '#FORM.password#', '#FORM.pcmodel#', '#FORM.workgroup#', '#trim(FORM.ip)#', '#FORM.printerip#', '#FORM.printer#', '#trim(FORM.serialnumber)#', '#FORM.port#', '#FORM.switchport#', '#trim(FORM.oldpcnumber)#', '#trim(FORM.newpcnumber)#', '#FORM.comments#') </CFQUERY> ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Introducing the Fusion Authority Quarterly Update. 80 pages of hard-hitting, up-to-date ColdFusion information by your peers, delivered to your door four times a year. http://www.fusionauthority.com/quarterly Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/message.cfm/forumid:4/messageid:246915 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
