Do you mean to say, you created a table, which has a column that should accept only 0 or 14 as values? You can acheive this with a check constraint or a trigger.

Solution 2

Create an INSTEAD OF INSERT trigger, if the number of records in the INSERTED table is equal to 14 then only do the INSERTION.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175089.aspx[^] for more information about this trigger
