get auto_increment field after addnew ?

If I add a record to a table (with addnew or whatever) and this table has an auto_incrementing field (as a unique identifier) how do I retrieve this identifier (without having to execute a new query) ?

If the db cursor is on the new record when you call the .Update function (I would think it would be, just look at .Fields("AutoID") or whatever you called it, right after the Update.

Nope this does not work. If I do this f.i.:

objRS.Open "table",objConn,0,3,2
objRS.AddNew
objRS("Name") = strName
objRS("Pass") = strPass
Response.Write "ID = " & objRS("ID")
objRS.Update
Response.Write "ID = " & objRS("ID")

I get:

ID = ID =

Here is an example of something that I recently used.

PHP Code:
