I presume you are inserting to both tables always at the same time inside a transaction? We would need to see the code to see how you are inserting them..
Might I suggest, instead of the 2 part juggling act, you drop the auto-increment property on your second table, and just use the value derived from the first as the joining key in the second. Then there is only one sequence to worry about with nothing to sync against - michael dykman On Fri, Apr 15, 2011 at 10:33 AM, Gary <gp...@paulgdesigns.com> wrote: > I have a innodb with a join on two tables.
