Question : SQL Server's equivalent  of Oracles sequence?

I got an assignment from school, written for Oracle. The problem is that I need to realize it in MS SQL Server.

In the assignment the teacher is telling us to "create a sequence" for generating unique ID's for a table.

My question is, is there something like Oracle's "sequence" in MS SQL Server, except the IDENTITY(n,n) statement? If so what is it?

Thanx in advance.
 

Answer : SQL Server's equivalent  of Oracles sequence?

Whats wrong with identity? Creating a sequence-number in sql-server is done like this:

1. Enter entity name and set datatype to "int"
2. In the datatype properties-window set "identiy" to "yes"
3. Make sure that Identity seed and identity increment are set to 1
