Well if you are using MSSQL you can use the variable @@identity to get
the primary key of the last inserted record for example:
<cfquery name="blarg" datasouce="yadda">
SET NOCOUNT ON
INSERT INTO booga (
fname,
lname
) VALUES (
'bob',
'superfly'
)
SELECT @@identity as newid
SET NOCOUNT OFF
</cfquery>
<cfoutput>#blarg.newid#</cfoutput>
most databases should have a similar function (prolly not access tho)
Cheers
