I have seen this problem in another topic, but there was no answer mentioned there.

When trying to deploy a data package for a table with a timestamp column, I get the exception:

SqlException: Cannot insert an explicit value into a timestamp column. User INSERT with a column list to exclude the timestamp column, or insert a DEFAULT into the timestamp column.

It seems like the DDT is trying to copy the timestamp values taken from the original table, while it shouldn't, since timestamps are updated by SQL server.

Did you come up with a solution for that?

Thank you.

2) When you receive that error, does it happen in a predictable manner, like "I always get the error when saving a table that has a UniqueIdentifier PK," or something like that?

3) Haven't seen that one before... does it happen consistently?  Or does it work fine one time and then fail the next?
