I am trying to update my entity using Entity Framework 4.1 code First approach like this(In my Repository Class):

internal void SaveAccount(Account account) {

            context.Entry(account).State = EntityState.Modified;
            context.SaveChanges();
        }

but I am getting an error which is:

Cannot update identity column 'Unique ID'.

I am not updating Unique ID Column. How can I avoid this error ?
