I want to insert a new row in the table and return the identity value. Is this possible? I was experimenting with the following: ADODataSet1.Recordset := ADOCommand1.Execute; I was hoping that the dataset would contain the newly created row... but I can not get it to work. Any ideas or other solution sto the problem? /Richard Back to top Mikael Eriksson Guest Posted: Tue May 08, 2007 5:15 pm    Post subject: Re: Using adoCommand with a table that has an identity colum Richard Bibby skrev: Quote: Hej, I have a table in MS SQL Sever that has an identity column.

ADODataSet.CommandText := 'SELECT @@Identity AS COLID'; regards /Micke Back to top Paul Scott Guest Posted: Tue May 08, 2007 5:24 pm    Post subject: Re: Using adoCommand with a table that has an identity colum On Tue, 08 May 2007 13:15:25 +0100, Mikael Eriksson <micke314 (AT) gmail (DOT) com> wrote: Quote: I have a table in MS SQL Sever that has an identity column.

ADODataSet.CommandText := 'SELECT @@Identity AS COLID'; I see in my code that I changed to using "select scope_identity as..." rather than "select @@identity" Thanks to the original poster (and google) for reminding me of the following... Also worth pointing out the difference between @@IDENTITY and SCOPE_IDENTITY() @@IDENTITY returns the last ID generated for an identity column in any table. SCOPE_IDENTITY returns the last ID generated in the caller scope. The main difference is that if your statement inserts a table with an identity column, and that table has a trigger that populates another table with an identity column, @@IDENTITY will return the ID generated for the table populated by the trigger, while SCOPE_IDENTITY() will return the ID for the table specified in the insert statement. -- Paul Scott Information Management Systems Macclesfield, UK.
