RE: Maybe a stupid question but can it be done?

the ID field in the first table can be an auto-increment field and the second table needs to have an ID INT field that is not auto increment. Insert into the first table, use mysql_insert_id() (or whatever it is) to get the auto incremented value and then do your second insert using that value for the ID field.
