I am inserting a row into a table that generates a new sequence number (let's say - EmployeeID). How are other users getting that new EmployeeID? Are you guys just selecting it using the firstname and lastname of the employee?
The DB I am using is SQL Server if that helps. And the Project Language is ASP 3.0 W/ Tempates

The SQL Server has the "@@IDENTITY" feature that allows to retrieve the last insterted key (autonumeric field).

Actually while your at it look at Scope_Identity() this will return the
identity field even if you have triggers that create new entries.
