Inserting row and scope_identity()

With a query such as,

SET NoCount ON
INSERT INTO ....
VALUES ...
SELECT scope_identity()
SET NoCount OFF

, can I trust that the id I get back is for the row that I just inserted, or
can it be incorrect because of other "simultaneous" inserts? I need it for
an ASP page.

Thanks,
Marcus

800 grader, du kan lita på mej, du kan lita på mej.

Yes, you can trust it. scope_identity is local to your process - in
fact local to the scope (procedure, batch etc) you are in.
