you could use cftransaction and within the transaction you can check for the newly created id number.
CF treats transactions in a fallback manner. i.e. every item in the transaction must complete before the transaction is "submitted". HTH, Dave -----Original Message----- From: Ryan Farrell [mailto:farrellt@;nuovotech.com] Sent: 28 October 2002 15:20 To: CF-Talk Subject: Locking and clustered servers Ok, we are thinking about setting up 2 port redirectors/load balancers (hardware) and 5 separate servers running CF 5. So, the only problem is that some of our code has named locks to prevent simultaneous record insertions on a particular table. I can't think of any way to make a lock recognizable to another server, but maybe someone out there has a neat trick or two. Or, maybe we can eliminate the need for the lock: how do some of you handle the process of inserting data into a table that generates an autonumber and then figuring out what number was just generated? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
