SQL 2008 GUID column is all 0's
- by Andy Evans
I'm hoping this is a simple goof I did on my end ...
I have a table in my database set up like so:
column name: widget_guid
data type: uniqueidentifier
allow nulls: false
default value: newid()
identity: false
row guid: true
When records are created (via LINQ to SQL) that the values in this field are formatted as a GUID but contain all 0's
My assumption was that when a new record was created, that a guid would be autogenerated for that column, much like an auto-incrementing row id. Is this not true? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
