Hi.

I was asked by a programmer today how to do the following:

During an insert into a table through a C++ program, the programmer inserts a row. One of the columns uses a sequence_name.NEXTVAL for its insert. Is there anyway to return that value to the program and update the structure without making another database call to the database? Thanks for your help. I have not had to use Pro*C very much and I am looking in the manual.

Geoff
