Hi people,
I have a table with a column called ID (auto-increment).
Is it possible to know the value of ID, right after inserting
a row?
I'm using postgresql.
Thanks.

You can use the function
insert/nextval(),
before my select statement finishes processing? Would I get
a 5?

I tried that. It gives me 24807, instead of 5.
Or is oid is a reference to something else, which would
lead me to the '5' i'm looking for?

Thanks for your reply,
but I'm using postgresql.
Mysql is irrelevant for me.

There is a similar one for postgresql as well: pg_last_oid() .

Hi Bob,
SELECT idno ORDER BY idno DESC LIMIT 1;

That's not the best idea - what happens if two users are inserting records
into the table at nearly-but-not-quite the same time?
1. Insert A goes through
2. Insert B goes through
3. LastID A returns

I tend to (if I can't use mysql_last_id) insert a unique key into the row,
and pull the row out that matches that key, in order to get the ID...
ensures that it was the right row... then you can delete the unique key.
