Hi.

i have created a Table in Sqlserver 2008r2 as below:

Table=Country(CountryId (Int,not null,Unique Index) ,CountryName (NvarChar))

I had inserted data into this table , but i decided to delete them , now when i want to reinsert data into the table , it has memorized it's previous Indexes and
CountryId starts from (for example 14), while i want to start it from number 1.

I guess you don't have access to google ? I typed your question in to google and got this:

DBCC CHECKIDENT ('mytablename', RESEED, new identity value)

In other words

DBCC CHECKIDENT ('Country', RESEED, 1)
