Hi everyone,



I use a sequence's next value as table's primary key to append a record.
After that, how can I know what that number is?


        insert into Contact (contact_id, contact_name)
        values (contact_seq.nextval, in_contact_name)





then I want to know what is the contact_id I just used?



Thanks,


Bill
