INSERT statemant return ID

[Grei]

i need RecordId of newly created record after i:
command.executenonquery(INSERT ....)

now i do:
INSERT, and later
SELECT max(RecordId)
but i'm hoping there is a better way.
is it possible in both Access and SQL server?

Thank you

The best way to make this work in both Access and SQL Server is to use GUID
keys, not identity columns.

Your app creates the GUID key, and inserts the record. There is no need to
get the database to return the value... you already have it.
