You should be able to call last_insert_rowID() via a Select statement in LiveCode script. That'll get you the rowid value, which you can then use to insert records in your other two tables.

I have an sqlite database with 3 tables, 1 primary, with the other 2 as secondary tables that relate to the primary with an id field. The question is this.. can I create an entry in the primary as well as adding entries to the secondaries all in one go? Need to create the main, use the newly created id and add the entries to the secondary tables using that id. I've done this (or similar) in the past yet can't get my noggin to pull out the info, and haven't found the right thing via google yet.

Hi, You might be able to create a trigger, which automatically executes queries when you insert specific data. -- Best regards, Mark Schonewille Economy-x-Talk Consulting and Software Engineering Homepage: http://economy-x-talk.com Twitter: http://twitter.com/xtalkprogrammer KvK: 50277553 Use Color Converter to convert CMYK, RGB, RAL, XYZ, H.Lab and other colour spaces. http://www.color-converter.com Buy my new book Programming LiveCode for the Real Beginner http://qery.us/3fi Fill out this survey please http://livecodebeginner.economy-x-talk.com/survey/ On 7/30/2013 18:04, Mike Bonner wrote: I have a question that should be easy to figure out but i'm having issues so hopefully someone can point me at a simple method.
