Getting new IDs after insert

Question

I\'m inserting a bunch of new rows into a table which is defined as follows:

CREATE TABLE [sometable](
    [id] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
    [someval] s         


        

Answer 1

Use the OUTPUT functionality to grab all the INSERTED Id back into a table.

CREATE TABLE MyTable
(
    MyPK INT IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
    MyColumn NVARCHAR(1000)
)

DECLARE @myNewPKTable TABLE (myNewPK INT)

INSERT INTO 
    MyTable
(
    MyColumn
)
OUTPUT INSERTED.MyPK INTO @myNewPKTable
SELECT
    sysobjects.name
FROM
    sysobjects

SELECT * FROM @myNewPKTable
