Hi, How to know the value which I must set in the foreign key field?. I have two tables:
CREATE TABLE AAAAAA ( Id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY, data char(9) ); CREATE TABLE BBBBBB ( BBBBBB_Id integer REFERENCES AAAAAA(Id) NOT NULL, field char(5) ); I insert a register on table AAAAAA, INSERT INTO AAAAAA (data) VALUES ('123456789'); and then, I want to insert a related register in table BBBBBB, but I do not know how get the proper value to the Foreign key BBBBBB_Id. Note that a lot of client are inserting at the same time on the AAAAAA table, so I can not just get the greater value of AAAAAA.Id Maybe using transactions ?. Any tip, URI, ... will be welcome. INSERT INTO BBBBBB (BBBBBB_Id, field) VALUES (??????,'12345'); Regards, Davi ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match
