This isn't so much purely a SQL Server question as a question on ASP.NET VB technique. In particular, I have a situation where I am either inserting a NEW row for a "profile table" (name, email, etc.) or Updating an existing one. In both cases, I need to create a new row in a related table which has the identity/serial column of the parent table as the primary key for the data to be inserted into this subsidiary table (for which there may be many rows inserted, all tying back to the parent).
At the time I do the update, of course, I have the identity/serial of the "parent" so it's easy to update/insert. However, if the profile is NEW, I need to capture the identity/serial which was inserted so as to use it for the child table insert. (I remember a call to an obscure function which was -- essentially -- "give me the identity/serial of that which was just INSERTed" but I am unable to locate equivalent functionality. (I have searched various online help files for "Insert serial", "Insert identity" and the like with no results.
is there any way of getting the identity without using the "@@idemtity" in sql??? I'm trying to use the inserted event of ObjectDataSource, with Outputparameters, can anybody help me???
i have a website that accepts users on it. first the user will apply to make use of my site and the data that he supplied will be put to account table. my problem is how can i get the last inserted identity value lets say id, to create the id of the person applied by simply incrementing it... i dont want to use the built in function of the sql server. can anybody help me of this process. asap...
I am inserting a record by calling a stored procedure in my asp.net code. I need to return the identity field from the insert to use elsewhere in my code. I have found many things regarding this but nothing has worked.
Here is the last part of my stored procedure. BTW, I have added Scope_Identity to the end of my sp and when I open my sp up, it is not there...not sure what that is about. I guess my main problem is what command do I use in ASP.net to execute the sp AND hold my returned value...
I am using VS.net (2003) SQLcommand TEXT. with input params. SQL server 2000
Can anyone tell me how to get the Identity value (field value, Idenity col) when you do an insert? I want to get the Identity value, then redirect the user to another page and use this identity value so they can update more (other) fields that are on that page.
My code so far that works... but Where do I put @@IDENTITY ? How do I call or assign the @@IDENTITY value to a value in my aspx.vb code page?
Question: how do I get the Identity value from the ID column.

Hi, I have 2 tables in my database PrescriptionHeader and PrescriptionDetails.My PrescriptionHeader table has the following fields:PrescriptionID -identity fieldPatientID PatientfNamePatientlname PrescriptionDetails table has the following fields:PrescriptionDetailID -identityPrescriptionID -from PrescriptionHeader table MedicineDosage The function InsertPrescription inserts values into the table PrescriptionHeader. I want the same function to then insert the value of MedicineDosage into PrescriptionDetails with the same PrescriptionID inserted into PrescriptionHeader. How do I tell the function to insert the PrescriptionID that was automatically inserted into PrescriptionHeader also into table PrescriptionDetails . How do I return the identity before proceeding to insert into PrescriptionDetails table?ThanksFunction InsertPrescription(ByVal PatientID As String, _ByVal PatientFname As String, _ByVal Patientlname As String, ByVal MedicineDosage as String)Dim DBAdapter As SqlDataAdapterDim DBDataSet As DataSetDim SQLString As StringDim DBCommandBuilder As SqlCommandBuilderSQLString = "SELECT * FROM PrescriptionHeader WHERE PrescriptionId = ''"DBAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter(SQLString, DBConnection)DBDataSet = New DataSetDBAdapter.Fill(DBDataSet)Dim AddedRow As DataRow = DBDataSet.Tables(0).NewRow()AddedRow("PatientID") = PatientIDAddedRow("PatientfName") = PatientFnameAddedRow("Patientlname") = PatientlnameDBDataSet.Tables(0).Rows.Add(AddedRow)DBCommandBuilder = New SqlCommandBuilder(DBAdapter)DBAdapter.Update(DBDataSet) End Function
Ok I've been researching this for a day now and I'm not coming up with much. I want to store the auto-incrementing ID of the last inserted record in a session variable, so that I may put it in a foreign key column in another table, if the user wishes to fill out a form on another page. I think my stored procedure is correct. But don't know what code to add to my aspx page. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Here is my VB ScriptProtected Sub submitButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)

Best way to retrieve the identity key of the record just inserted?This question is for discussion purposes; the business process that spurred the question is currently working.Using SQL Server 2008 R2, a record is inserted from a stored procedure. Let's say the sp has something like this:
Code: BEGIN BEGIN TRANSACTION INSERT INTO tblTools ([Desc],CreateDate,Model,CreatedBy,Notes)
[code]....
In Access, when you add a new record to the recordset, the identity field comes "pre-populated" making it east to get the actual, correct identity value assigned to the record you are inserting. In SQL Server, I know options include:
Code: IDENT_CURRENT('tblX') SCOPE_IDENTITY @@IDENTITY among other methods.
Each has pros and cons, such as user privileges (IDENT_CURRENT requires the user to have Select privileges on the table, and catches records created by other things, such as users and triggers), and the other two give you the last key inserted and don't allow specifying the object (which is a problem if the insert added records to multiple tables, or you have multiple inserts).
SET @new_identity = @@IDENTITY SET @new_link = @item_link + @new_identity
UPDATE items SET item_link = @new_link WHERE item_id = @new_identity
END GO
Basically, what I am trying to do is this...
IF the item type is article, insert normally... which works fine...
however, if the item time is mediaItem, insert part of the item_link... (everything minus id.. eg: site.com/items.aspx?item_id=)... then once the row has been inserted, update that row, to make the link site.com/items.aspx?item_id=<new id>
however, when the sql runs the mediaItem code, it leaves the item_link field blank.
i recently found a little error in a stored procedure that was included in a project handed over to me....
the sp was rather simple. it just inserted a record into a table and returned the identity and the timestamp as follows
IF @@ERROR>0 BEGIN SELECT @int_InterventionID = 0 RETURN @@ERROR END ELSE BEGIN SELECT @int_InterventionIDReturned = MAX(InterventionID) FROM tblIntervention SELECT @ts_TimestampReturned = [Timestamp] FROM tblIntervention WHERE InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned SELECT @int_InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned, @ts_Timestamp = @ts_TimestampReturned RETURN 0 END
i figured that it should be using @@Identity for the interventionIdentity rather than max(InterventionID)
so i changed to...
IF @@ERROR>0 BEGIN SELECT @int_InterventionID = 0 RETURN @@ERROR END ELSE BEGIN SELECT @int_InterventionIDReturned = @@IDENTITY SELECT @ts_TimestampReturned = [Timestamp] FROM tblIntervention WHERE InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned SELECT @int_InterventionID = @int_InterventionIDReturned, @ts_Timestamp = @ts_TimestampReturned RETURN 0 END
it returns the @int_InterventionIDReturned but the timestamp now comes back as null??? why??
how can i ensure that i always get the timestamp of the record it has just inserted
Hello!I use a procedure to insert a new row into a table with an identitycolumn. The procedure has an output parameter which gives me theinserted identity value. This worked well for a long time. Now theidentity value is over 700.000 and I get errors whiles retrieving theinserted identitiy value. If I delete rows and reset the identityeverything works well again. So I think it is a data type problem.My Procedure:create procedure InsertProduct@NEWID int outputasbeginset nocount oninsert into PRODUCT(D_CREATED)values(getdate()+'')set nocount offselect @NEWID = @@IDENTITYendMy C# code:SqlCommand comm = new SqlCommand("InsertProduct", sqlCon);comm.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;comm.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@NEWID",System.Data.SqlDbType.Int)).Direction =System.Data.ParameterDirection.Output;try{SqlDataReader sqlRead = comm.ExecuteReader();object o = comm.Parameters["@NEWID"].Value;//...}catch ( Exception ex ){throw ex;}The object o is alwaya System.DbNull. I also tried to use bigint.Any hints are welcomeCiaoSusanne
Using VS 2008 Beta 2, SQL CE 3.5, on desktop, and Typed Datasets: The INSERT command of dataset table adapter does not return the updated identity of inserted row. Why?
also every time I want to modify the insert command to return the updated identity of inserted row, i get the error: "Unable to parse query text."
I have a problem described as follows: I have a table with one instead of insert trigger:
create table TMessage (ID int identity(1,1), dscp varchar(50)) GO Alter trigger tr_tmessage on tmessage instead of insert as --Set NoCount On insert into tmessage
[code]....
When I execute P1 it returns 0 for Id field of @T1.
How can I get the Identity in this case?
PS: I can not use Ident_Current or @@identity as the table insertion hit is very high and can be done concurrently.Also there are some more insertion into different tables in the trigger code, so can not use @@identity either.
Hi all!In a insert-trigger I have two joins on the table named inserted.Obviously this construction gives a name collition beetween the twojoins (since both joins starts from the same table)Ofcourse I thougt the usingbla JOIN bla ON bla bla bla AS a_different_name would work, but itdoes not. Is there a nice solution to this problem?Any help appriciated
How to generate serial numbers ? I had already tired ident. i am getting the error. Can any people who is willing to write a syntax for me.
In sybase if we use Number * function. It will automatically generates the serial numbers from 1 to n. similarly i need the same function in SQL server 7.0 so that my problem will be solved...
I am converting sybase stored procedure into sql server stored procedure that is why i am asking about that. i am struggling hard to find an answer...
Please give me the correct function name, otherwise please ignore in sending reply. I had used all the functions like identity, ident and so on. I need while selecting a querry, i need to generate serial numbers. I dont have identity column in my table. But, i need to generate serial numbers..
In Sybase SQL Any where, we have a function called Number (*) which will in turn generate serial numbers like ex..
Select Number (*) from x
The output will be
Number(*) 1 2 3 4 5 6 and so on..
I need a equivalent function in SQL Server 7.0 in which if i do select on that particular function with a table i should return above values..
I have a table with a primary key, what I really need is something like an IDENTITY, but with the character 'X' and the last to digits of the year added on the front. Is there another way to update the field automatically like an IDENTITY would do, automatically incrementing as fields are inserted.
I need a query to find max serial number by comparing two different tables. Here is my requirementI am having two tables named Table1 and Table2. Each tables having more than 30,000,000 records.I want a simple query to find Max srno from two tables.For exampleIf Table1 max is 245 where partno=2 and ano=2and Table2 max is 343 where partno=2 and ano=2Then 343 is max serial noIf Table1 max is 435 where partno=2 and ano=2and Table2 max is 34 where partno=2 and ano=2Then 435 is max serial noI used this query but its taking more time select max(v.MaxSrNo) from ((select max(MaxSrNo) as MaxSrNo from Table1 where partno=@partno and ano=@ano)union all (select max(MaxSrNo) from Table2 where partno=@partno and ano=@ano)) as v Pls give me a simple query to find max srno.
Hi forum I need some advice regards setting a serial prefix to PK ID colomn. Currently it starts at row 1 with increased increments of 1. Thats all good! but I would like is to add a prefix before the 1, ie W2W01/1 next W2W01/2 an so on. Many thanks Paul
My problem is one of my query is returing party_codes . now i also want a column which returns serial numbers along with it . the serial numbers are not stored anywhere. they should be autogenerated. My query is combining two different databases and its using union in it so i can not use count in it . Is there any other way i can acheive . for eg Now my query output is party_code ---------- R06048 R06600 R06791 (3 row(s) affected) I want it like party_code serial number ---------- ------------- R06048 1 R06600 2 R06791 3 (3 row(s) affected) The serial number column should be auto generated in the select statement it self Is there any system rowid i can use . Please suggest
Hello Friends My problem is Suppose Query is - Select * from tbl_Employee TBL_EMPLOYEE HAS ONLY TWO COLUMNS NAME,POST I need that an extra column get inserted in result through query showing serial Number with each row.So that query result look like this. Serial Name Post 1 XYZ QER 2 SDF OPO 3 WER IPO If any body knows please post the solution its urgent.
I am in need of converting serial date to regular date ie...735510.40461 and only need the hours, minutes and seconds, I have used the examples I've seen on different forums,
select SERIALNO, Max(TIME) from dbo.TASK A join dbo.Status B on A.TID=B.TID where A.ID in ('1111',2222') and A.TYPE='Pen' group by B.SERIAL_NO, B.TIME order by BM.TIME
For this query I may get serial no duplicates but times are unique
For that serial no, I have to find the recent time. But if I use group by, I am getting the wrong no
I need a new field added 'Field1' which will add SEQUENCE number 1,2,.. based ON GROUP BY MasterID..AND another field TotalCount which will COUNT total masterID (here it will be 2)
