The problem is that the original query I had for query1 returned a value sometimes, because it was doingn something like
If not exists Select tableid from table where somefield=#somevalue# Begin Insert into table (somefield) values (#somevalue#) Select @@identity as tableid End Which was returning a value when the record wasn't previously in the db, but I have fixed is since to return a value in both instances.
