I need to know the ID of a last inserted record. The problems is, that I use VS generated dataset and table adapter, so the classic "SELECT @@IDENTITY" is not working.
I also tried to use "SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('tablename')", but for some reasons it crashes at the runtime, saying that function IDENT_CURRENT is not recognized, or something like this.

This query select top 1 id from tablename order by id desc will not be choice for you?

yeah, it worked. Thank you very much. Still, I have a question: isn't it the same as choosing the maximum ID?

No problem.
If ID value is increase-able always then we can use max function to get maximum value of ID.
example: select max(id) from tablename

This only works in a single user environment - otherwise someone else could insert before you run the select. Also, this relies on id being the prmary key, otherwise you should select the max(id) - bad practice to rely on any ordering unless specified.
Do't know what the answer is though, I nvere use tableadaptors etc, there isn't enough control over transactions etc for the sort of systems I usually work on.

select max(id) from mytable should be enought but...you may need to use a lock. Read about it i don´t know much about it!
If it´s a read/report procedure (you don´t delete or edit anything) there´s no problem using select max(id )from mytable, otherwise you must use somekind of lock!!!

Try to optimize your query.

Have you considered putting an index on this column (you need to consider that while it may speed up your query, it might also slow down your inserts).
|
|
|
|
|
Besides optimizing your query (perhaps by indexing the column) you can increase the query timeout in your code.

Listen Blue_Boy thanks for the post it woorks fine.
It seems i didn´t need that yet, because i thought on creating new tables and drop them after "my search", so i needed to create tables with diferents names, (because they triggered the same sp code)
But i ended on doing a diferent loop: create 1 table, search it and drop it, created 1 table,search it and drop it etc...
(so i didn´t need diferent table names)
ALL OK, but if i needed to do your way?
I couldn´t manage to do your dynamic sql when i have to enter a sp parameter, like @season.
declare @my_sql varchar(max)
select @my_sql = 'bellow code'
use my_Database
go
create procedure season_standings
@season as char(4)
as
begin
...
end
go

Hi guys,
We have a column "LastModifiedDate" columns in almost all our tables. We are currently using procedures to update lastupdateddate column. but every now and then developers forget to add this to their query.
Is their a way to make this automatic...should we use triggers for this??...
But again I m not sure if we should add triggers to all tables...
what's the best practice for this?
Any suggestions??

Use triggers. Much better solution than to use separate procedure.
|
|
|
|
|
we are not using separate procs but every procs that updates any table...it updates this column also...

So is every update and insert done via stored procedure and the developers are writing the procedures?
If that is true I would still go to triggers. In this way the database takes care of critical information (I understood that the date must be modified every time) and the developers don't have to remember to add this column to every DML operation. Also DML executed directly against the table is setting the date correctly if triggers are used.
Just wondering how you use the LastModifiedDate. If it simply shows the date when the record is last modified, it's ok. However if you use it for optimistic locking, the resolution isn't adequate.

Thanks Mika,
We are using it to update date for any change in the table...i guess i will be using triggers only..
thanks again for help
