Question

i am trying to an insert statement using last_insert_id() , i want to take the last inserted ID and insert it as a foreign key in an another table.

this is the statement :

String stt= "insert into Takes_lesson values (lid,sid) (LAST_INSERT_ID(),"+sid+");";

yet a syntax error occurs , what seems to be the problem?
thanks in advance

Answer 1

Keyword/operands in the wrong order..

The column specification should be before the VALUES keyword when doing an INSERT, compare your query to the below:

INSERT INTO Takes_lesson (lid,sid) VALUES (LAST_INSERT_ID(), ... )
