Hi.
I'm inserting a record into a DB, how do i get the value back of an
AutoNumber field so i can use it in subsequent SQL statements?
At the moment I have code vaguely like this:
Dim selectCMD As OleDbCommand = New OleDbCommand("I NSERT into AuditItems (
ParentAuditID, section, score, comments) values('1')", conn)
MsgBox(selectCM D.ExecuteNonQue ry())
I presume this is quite easy, maybe i'm doing it the wrong way...
Thanks for any help in advance!

i cringe hearing "autonumber"... you must be using access! i don't think you
can afaik.
in msde (which is FAR better than access) you can just append this statement
"select @@identity newId" to the tail end of an insert statment and get the
value from the newId column of the returned recordset.

It's probably already been discussed at
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.framew ork.adonet. Have a look there.

Excellent thanks.
The answer truns out to be:
selectCMD.Comma ndText = "Select @@identity"
MsgBox(selectCM D.ExecuteScalar ())
I will certainly trawl the microsoft newsgroup a bit now.
Thanks again!

Dan,
I suggest that you look for a copy of David Sceppa's book 'ADO.NET
Core Reference' which goes over this (and the requirements to make it work
correctly). The book is very useful and has a lot of examples.

Hi all,
I use (something like) following code to add new records to a database,
but it doesn't work!!!
I need to know the value of an AutoNumber-field when I add the record.
Why doesn't it work and how can I make it work???
I think it should be easy, but I can't figure it out!

Hi all,
I have a table with an “autonumber” primary key field that also acts as
a foreign key in 2 other tables. I would like to programmatically add a
new record to the first table and the other 2 child tables. The reason
for doing this is to copy one complete record (parent and child table
records) into a new record so the user can make a few modifications.
So how do I determine what will be the next auto-generated number for my...

Hi everybody-
I have 2 tables, Hearings and Rulings. Both have primary keys called,
CaseID, that are autonumbers. I don't want both tables to have the
same autonumber. For example, if Hearings has 55, then I want Rulings
to have a number greater than 55. Two or more Hearings may be entered
before a Ruling is entered. For example, Hearings with CaseIDs= 55,
56, and 57 may be entered before a Ruling or vice versa. There is no

I have a simple complaint tracking Db with one main table and one main
form for entering data. I need for the users to be able to see the
record number for future reference when they come back to the
application to update or close that record. The record number is field
RecordId and is an AutoNumber field. (Also the primary key) Is there a
way to show the AutoNumber value in the form when a new record is
opened?

Call it "tblIssuerRating".
Ran a query that appends to that table from a work table.
Inadvertantly appended from the work table's "RecordID", which was not
