this may have been asked a thousand times but i
haven't found a standard answer...


MSSQL
set nocount on
insert into (column) values (value)
select identityid = @@identity
set nocount off


POSTGRESQL
*cricket cricket* :)


How is this done? By a trigger function? Or is it
natively supported? Could I get an example on how to
do it too? 

Thanks,
Matt
