@@IDENTITY returns the last ID inserted globally, it does not guarantee that it is actually the ID your after. SCOPE_IDENTIY() returns the last ID within the scope.

Brian, I use this query immediately following an insert query if I want the primary key value: <CFQUERY NAME="getid" DATASOURCE="dsn"> SELECT @@Identity as artid FROM tablename </cfquery> I guess you could wrap the two queries in a CFTRANSACTION if it is high traffic.

Hi all, Is there a way to get the primary key (autonumber) that would be allocated during an insert statement in a cfquery?
