To reset the identity (primary key) column in SQL, the quickest way is to use Truncate function. *** Truncate will DELETE ALL OF THE DATA IN YOUR TABLE ***

TRUNCATE TABLE Blogs

If for some some reason, you can't truncate the table and got this error message:

Cannot truncate table 'dbo.nn_Songs' because it is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.

It's because there are foreign key constraints, but you still want to reset the number, then first MANUALLY DELETE the rows (via the UI for example), then do this:

DBCC CHECKIDENT('Blogs', RESEED, 0)

That should reset your identity column to 0.

Thôi Thế Thì Chia Tay

I've been waiting for the release of EA Fifa 2010 for quite awhile, for some random reasons. Mostly because I'm bored at Fifa 2009 (I've been playing it ever since its release date) and it lacks of features that was already in the previous version, such as Fifa 2008.

Most of the time I play against the computer in Manager mode, basically, you starts at a manager for the club and your goal is to take that club to the top. In each season, you have the ability to buy, sell, trade players, upgrade players, stadium, staffs, etc... Fifa '09 annoyed me the most when I can't change player' Kit number. So I might have some of my favorite strikers such as Messi or Torres wearing some stupid number like #2 or #39, and then some goal keeper wearing #11! And a long list of features that I would love to have.

Fifa 2010 changed that. The improved AI is A LOT better, quicker, and more realistic. I can now change Kit number, and the Manager Mode is more fun than ever. I only have couple hours playing with it last night but I've already liked it a lot more than I ever was. This will keep me busy for another year (just like Fifa 2009 did, dispite some minor problems I've stated above) until Fifa 2011 comes. If you are a soccer fan, Fifa 2010 is the game to play.
