after inserting into the auto_increment table, do a 'SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()' which will return the last autoincremented value. You can use this value in your second insert statement. danny - -- Danny Haworth =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ge2 System Administrator Gas~Elec Safety Systems Tel : 01895 422 997 Email : [EMAIL PROTECTED] (mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQE9iGENUKf+497XC3QRAinfAJ0dgODNkRypaa/5D9R4VA8LAwoalQCfTwnm YOkwrvwm7ZWfvH8rwVhcDFc= =k+A3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
