Question

The Data in my DataTable is like

ID ContactName1  Designation1 ContactName2 Designation2 1  A             dummy        B            sam  

The Table structure of my Table is

ID ContactName Designation 

I am passing the values in the stored procedure as:

@ContactName1 @Designation1  @ContactName2 @Designation2 

I want a single insert statement to insert the records.

How can I achieve this?

Answer 1

Assuming your ID primary key is set on auto-increment, and your table has three fields:

INSERT INTO DataTable (ContactName, Designation) VALUES      (@ContactName1, @Designation1),      (@ContactName2, @Designation2); 

As per the actual ID, if you don’t have it on auto-increment, which judging from the comment on Ivan’s response, you don’t, you could actually get it using the MAX() statement:

SELECT MAX(ID) AS max_id FROM DataTable
