Hello,
I have a question. I created a table with the identity specification (1,1). However, after I entered a couple of rows, I found the ID skipped number 5; it jumped from 4 to 6. How did this happen? and how to fix this?
Thanks,
Feifei
query for creating the table

[gene_id] [numeric](38, 0) IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
[gene_name] [varchar](50) NOT NULL,

CONSTRAINT [Gene_pk] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
