Is there any query to set identity specification to false or true

Question

I am trying to edit a table structure. I have a table that contains a primary key and its identity specification is true. I want to change the primary key's identity specification to false using a query as long as I want to run this query on the user's program as I can't go for every user's PC and change it from the designer ... I just want a query to change it from identity specification true to false.

Can I use

alter table table1 set table1ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY

Answer 1

1- Adding New Column First -

alter table tablename add columnname int

2- Copying the data from identity to column to new column added using above query -

update tablename set columnname = identitycolumnname

3- Now Dropping identity column -

alter table tablename drop column identitycolumnname

4- Finally renaming a new column inserted to a identity Column name

EXEC sp_RENAME 'tablename.columnname' , 'identitycolumnname', 'COLUMN'
