it was meant as an example, to convey what i want to do, which is do a
simltaneaous insert into multiple tables at the same time. the syntax
concerning the left join/elements to be inserted was not intended to be
syntacticly (sp?) correct!!!

Bruce,
Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. I understood what you were asking, and I
thought I answered it. Your search of the mysql docs and google found
nothing about multiple-table inserts because you can't do that. I think the
mysql manual page I referenced is clear:
INSERT Syntax
INSERT
The question:
Is there anything in MySQL that will allow me to determine, accurately, the
last auto-incremented field from a particular database, so I can then insert
based upon this into another table? What if 2 users input at the same time?
Please see the 'long explanation' for further
Since you should still have the same information that you used to create
your entry in the candidate table you can do something like:
SELECT @candidateID := Candidate_ID
FROM candidate
WHERE Last_Name = '$lastname'
AND First_Name = '$firstname'
AND Middle_Initial = '$middle'
Yes, LAST_INSERt_ID(). It's connection-specific, not db-specific. Because
it is connection-specific, your 2-users issue is avoided. See the manual
for the details http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/Getting_unique_ID.html.
