auto number problem

I have one auto number field in one table in sql server
2000.
I'm inserting new record using insert statement and am
not giving any value for that field as its auto number.
On the very next statement , I need to know which number
it inserted in auto number field for that record??
What should be the logic???

Best Regards,
dave
