use the LAST_INSERT_ID() sql function On Fri, 4 Jan 2002 11:32:19 +0800, Arvin Bautista used a few recycled electrons to form:
| I had 2 tables, the second table had a field (a key field) that is related | to the field of the first table | | first table second table | __________________ ____________________ | : client_id : client_name : : client_id : services : | __________________ _____________________ | | I'm trying to normalize the database. "client_id" field from first table is | incremental (autoincrement). Now i need some advice how can i Insert record | to the second table that it can have the same value that the first table | "client_id" assigned by the autoincrement. Is there an easy way to do it | | Thank You in advance | | Arvin | | | | | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | Before posting, please check: | http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) | http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) | | To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | Trouble unsubscribing?
