  • 0

I’m building a database with a product instance table in Visual Studio2010 with Sql Server 2008, and I need to make the ProductId column autoincremented, but I cannot find the attribute in the column properties menu. I’m using c# and asp.net, if that is relevant. I’ve seen the code to create the table and set the column to autoincrement, but as this is my first go-round with coding, I don’t know where to put the code. The only way I know to create a new table is through the VS gui, if that makes sense.

    [NavigateUrl] [varchar](200) NOT NULL,
    [ImageUrl]  AS ('/content/homepageimages/'+[ImageName]),
    [DisplayFrom] [datetime] NULL,
    [DisplayTo] [datetime] NULL,
 CONSTRAINT [PK_HomePageImages] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
