return of a field value (auto-increment) after insert (mysql)

I am inserting a record in to a mysql database. I'd like to know the
record number of that record.
I use a index field which is auto-incremented.

Is there any way to get a field value returned after insertion?

I have been just running another query for the last record, but if
someone does insertion a split second after the first insertion the
last record would not be the one of interest.

thanks

Hello I am new to internet programming and wonder if anyone can help me with this.... I am trying to pass a hidden field value on a form into another field on the form so that it can then be inserted in the database, to enable me then to reference that number at a later date. (The hidden value (1 for example) would then automatically get passed to the other input field.)

I have a SQL stored procedure for adding a new record in a transactions table. It also has two return values: CounterID and IDKey.

Is that right? Though I haven't ever created a webservice, I would have thought that a method could return a whole lot...
