No, I don't use an autoincrement column. I'am looking for a unique identifier that is not represented by a column. But maby it's not an SQL habbit. Maby I better use the autoincrement column you mentioned to uniquely identify a row with just 1 column.

In MySQL there is a function called: mysql_insert_id(); Hope that helps. -Flint -----Original Message----- From: Martin Verstegen [mailto:martinv@wxs.nl] Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2000 2:36 PM To: Php-Windows-Help Subject: [PHP-WIN] SQL and ROWID I used to work with Progress. In Progress it's possible to retrieve a rowid from a row. It's a sort of unique number of that row. Can I retrieve something like that from an SQL row? If yes, how do I retrieve that rowid and after that how can I select the same row using that rowid. Greetinx, Martin verstegen 2FIT
