I am migrating from MS SQL Server to MySQL 4.1. I have code in my ColdFusion/SQL Server application that went something like this: <cfquery name="insertquery"> SET NOCOUNT ON INSERT INTO TABLE (....) SELECT @@IDENTITY AS adid SET NOCOUNT OFF </cfquery>
That whole block was processed in coldfusion as a single query. I gave it a name of "insertquery", and I can get the ID back as insertquery.adid. I am having trouble getting the same functionality with MySQL. <cfquery name="insertquery"> INSERT INTO TABLE (...) SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID() as adid </cfquery> I get this MySQL error: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'INSERT INTO rps_names (nameid, name) VALUES (NULL, "Ryan Smithland") SELECT LA' at line 2 With MSSQL the trick was the NO COUNT. That told the database server not to return a count of the rows affected. Is there something similar I need to do in MySQL to get this to work?
