Hi ,

I have a table with Identity column. after and insert my goal is to get the primary key ( which is the identity colunm). To solve this problem did the following.

SELECT dbc.idcol.availvalue FROM dbc.idcol,dbc.tvm,dbc.dbase
        WHERE   dbc.idcol.tableid = dbc.tvm.tvmid and
        dbc.idcol.databaseid = dbc.dbase.databaseid and
        dbc.dbase.databasenamei = 'dbname' and
        dbc.tvm.tvmnamei = 'processlog';

This Query is taking hell lot of time on our system any idea why?

Is there any other way to accomplish this.

Thanks

Regards

Vijay

logon_file=${1}
processid=${2}
processlogidfile=${4}


bteq << EOT
.run file=${logon_file};

.os del ${processlogidfile};


Database dbname;

BEGIN TRANSACTION;

LOCK TABLE processlog FOR WRITE

.export data file=${processlogidfile}
        SELECT dbc.idcol.availvalue FROM dbc.idcol,dbc.tvm,dbc.dbase
        WHERE   dbc.idcol.tableid = dbc.tvm.tvmid and
        dbc.idcol.databaseid = dbc.dbase.databaseid and
        dbc.dbase.databasenamei = 'dbname' and
        dbc.tvm.tvmnamei = 'processlog';
.export reset;


INSERT INTO PROCESSLOG (ProcessID,StartTime)
VALUES(${processid},CURRENT_TIMESTAMP);

END TRANSACTION;

.logoff
.quit
