Hi guys,

How can I insert the id field of a query into another
table?  What I am wanting is to use the id from one table
as a foreign key in another table.  To do this, I run a
query on the two tables, and then I want to insert the
primary keys (field named id) from these two tables as
foreign keys in the second table.

Below is the code I have written that ins't working.

<cfquery datasource="Software Updates" name="techs">
        SELECT          * 
        FROM            techs
        WHERE   tech='#form.tech#'
 </cfquery>
 <cfquery datasource="Software Updates" name="software">
        SELECT          * 
        FROM            software
        WHERE   software='#form.software#'
 </cfquery>
<CFQUERY NAME="AddLogEntry" DATASOURCE="Software Updates">
        INSERT INTO log (date, tech, software, comments)
        VALUES ('#form.date#', '#techs.id#', '#software.id#',
'#form.comments#')
</CFQUERY>

Thanks.

-Jake
