Question @@Identity
Hi,

I need to get the value of newly inserted Id in my table. I know I can use @@identity to get it, however this might not be the one I need, since if somebody else inserted another record at the same time I might end up to get that one. Is there a way to make sure I get my recently inserted Id?

Thanks,

Smells like MSSQL Server.

>> Is there a way to make sure I get my recently inserted Id?
Yeah, do the insert and the select within a transaction and lock the table before inserting.

Hi,

Sorry, I forgot. It is MS SOL server. I read an article for MS SQL while ago and in there they mentioned another method for getting the identity for SQL 2000. Do you know where can I fond some info on it?

Thanks,

It will not matter if anybody else makes an insert after yours. That will not affect what is returned by @@identity

@@indetity contains the value of the most recent identity value within a connection.
