Windows ODBC Drivers for BigCommerce - getting new IDENTITY value?
Posted: Tue 29 Jan 2019 17:29
Hello!
Using your ODBC driver, is it possible to get the IDENTITY value of the most recently inserted row?
For example, when I INSERT a row to the Categories tables, how do I get the new "Id" value of the record I inserted?
I'm assuming a "hack" would be to pull the max value from the table as the IDENTITY columns are probably sequential/increasing values, but normally in VBA, I can use a command like this after doing the insert:
Instead of DAO, I could try using ADO in VBA, but wanted to ask before spending a lot of time trying numerous ways.
Other than that, the product is working great so far and had great value!
Thanks!

newID = db.OpenRecordset("SELECT @@IDENTITY").Fields(0)Other than that, the product is working great so far and had great value!
