Jerry,

Instead of relying sql server to insert the identity for you or on scope_identity() to get its corresponding value, just use a temporary variable to hold it and insert it yourself.

Example:

DECLARE @mynewid uniqueidentifier;

– choose one of the following
SET @mynewid = newid()
SET @mynewid = newsequentialid()

INSERT INTO MyTable(@mynewid, ‘other fields’,….)

How do I retrieve what the new id is? Usualy, I would use scope_itendity() to get what the record’s id is. But scope_identity() data type is integer, not guid. Is there a new scope_identity()-equiv method in SQL?

Hi,

What are the performance gain for
uniqueidentifier column with NEWSEQUENTIALID() as DEFAULT VALUE and NON CLUSTURED INDEX
against
uniqueidentifier column with NEWID() as DEFAULT VALUE and NON CLUSTURED INDEX

Thank-you.
