That would produce quite different values. :-)

Solution 3

SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('TableName') gives you the current Id(IDENTITY).

Solution 2

You can get the next value of the Id from SQL Server, see, for instance get the next value of identity[^] . if you make the (somewhat unsafe) assumption that only your code deals with the table than you may record IDENT_CURR and IDENT_INCR values in order to compute next ones.
