[SOLVED] Retrieving the primary key of the record i've just created


Recommended Posts

Hi - is there a way to securely retrieve the primary key of the record you have just created, perhaps using @@Identity?

 

I'm unfamiliar as i'm newish to SQL....I'm basically trying to run a php script which inserts data into a table, where the prim key is auto incremented. I then need to access the prim key of the newly created record. Haven't found a satisfactory way to do this so far, as to simply retrieve the newest record created would not account for the possibility that another user may have also just inserted a new row in the same table.

 

Grateful for any help.
