Dim insert_coupon_query As String = ("INSERT INTO qa_discountcoupons (id, status_code) VALUES (AUTO_INCREMENT_ID, 5)")
Dim cmd_query As New MySqlCommand(insert_coupon_query, objConn)
Dim cmd_result As Integer = CInt(cmd_query.ExecuteScalar())
I want to return the AUTO_INCREMENT value of the current insert, and show in a msgbox.
You can use an double Query and use the function LAST_INSERT_ID() After run your first query to get the last current query:
Dim insert_coupon_query As String = ("INSERT INTO qa_discountcoupons (status_code) VALUES (5); SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()")
Dim cmd_query As New MySqlCommand(insert_coupon_query, objConn)
Dim cmd_result As Integer = CInt(cmd_query.ExecuteScalar())
MsgBox(cmd_result)
You can fetch the AUTO_INCREMENT value for a table through a MySQL query and then show that in your MsgBox
