Hi there, I was wondering why you would want to use an identity column as opposed to using a Primary Key or UniqueIdentifier data? What's the advatnage if any? Where would this be suitable?

The Identity column generates a unique identifier for you, therefore you do not need to worry about generating a unique identifier? This is suitable when you require a unique identifier !!!
