Hi,

This is a SQL query for the advanced db gurus among you (I'm looking at Kent...)

After I've run an insert statement, should I get the new primary key
(it's autoincrementing) by using PySQLite's cursor.lastrowid in a
select statement, or is there a more SQLish way to do this?

In the SQL books I've got, they always seem to have an optional select
statement on the end of inserts/updates, and I was thinking maybe I
could do it that way also, but I can't figure out a logical way of
putting

'select primary_key from foo where primary_key value > every other
primary_key value'


select max(primary_key) from foo? _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
