If I have a table like with a column being the PK for the table and being an
Auto Increment value, what is the best way to return this value to my
script? It is possible that additional rows may have been added during the
small wait.
Ie.
Col 1 Col 2 Col 3
Hi,
I imagine there has to be a better way!
Yes :) Take a look at the LAST_INSERT_ID() function.
Take care,
Aleksandar

If you insert a row LAST_INSERT_ID() will return the primary key value in
this setup.
The other way

If I have a table like with a column being
select last_insert_id();
or in php use the mysql_insert_id() eg:
$somevalue = mysql_insert_id();
print (The last auto incremented number was: $somevaluebr\n);
