    ElevateDB provides a LASTIDENTITY function which returns the last identity value assigned to the specified column in the specified table.

    SELECT LASTIDENTITY('Customer', 'CustNo') AS LastCustNo

    You can also obtain the same information using the INSERT statement.

    EDBQuery1.SQL.Clear;
EDBQuery1.SQL.Add('INSERT INTO Table1 (ID, Text1)');
EDBQuery1.SQL.Add('VALUES(:ID, :Text1)');
EDBQuery1.Prepare;
EDBQuery1.ParamByName('Text1').AsString:='Some text';
EDBQuery1.ExecSQL;
ShowMessage(EDBQuery1.ParamByName('ID').AsString);

    INSERT statements automatically set all parameters to IN/OUT so that
    any generated/computed column values (including IDENTITY columns) can
    be retrieved via the same parameters after the INSERT is executed.

    The above example is from the Support Forum.
