I am working on a project using asp.net mvc 2 and linq to sql. The problem occurs when trying to insert data into a table where the table has an identity column type of tinyint. When trying to insert the following error occurs:
The primary key column of type 'TinyInt' cannot be generated by the server.
Does linq to sql support tinyint datatype?
Please help me
From what I have been able to gather, Linq To Sql doesn't support TinyInt for auto increment fields.
Can you change the datatype to smallint or int?
