Half-solved:
We have discovered that a "returning" clause can be added after the "values"
clause in the INSERT statement to return a rowid immediately after a row is
inserted.
However, it would still be helpful to have a procedure or Oracle OCI call to
Parse a sql statement. In case anybody can help out...
Thanks,
Sam.
