Hi, Please excuse my ignorance as I just started looking at PEAR DB this past weekend. I have some PHP scripts that use the mysql_insert_id() function to return the last ID generated using auto_increment. In PEAR, is using the nextID() function and subtracting one, roughly equivalent to using the mysql_insert_id() function? I suppose that changing the code to use sequences might be better, but I was thinking that the short-term solution would be using the nextID() function in the manner described above. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Vern Vern Takebayashi vern@hcc.hawaii.edu Honolulu Community College ICS/Engineering
