Do you mean the identity value from a table?

If so suggest RETURN @@IDENTITY and use the return value in db-lib

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.
