I should have explained it better! what i mean is the row number the Insert was inserted into, in MySQL its a function called mysql_insert_id, eg..

row no. data
3 Aston Villa
4 Man Utd.

if i inserted Arsenal next the row would be 5, thats what i want to return. Is this possible in freetds or will i just have to do another query?

Thanks,
Shaun.

AFAIK, there's no such concept as an "insert ID" in sql server.
What does it represent in MySQL ? You can get a "number of rows affected" value...

Is it possible in db-lib to return the insertid of a record when its inserted, eg. insertid = dbsqlexec("Insert into .....etc") I know this can be done in mysql but dont know about ms sql, any info would be
great.

Shaun.
