Procedure

Database schemas usually issue record ID’s by calling newid() or by using identity fields in your database. You can retrieve the ID of a newly created record in the PostCommitTransaction event of the Page class. The record’s ID is only available after the transaction has been committed, so the PostCommitTransaction event is the best place to retrieve the ID. In the example below, the PostCommitTransaction event is handled in the AddOrdersPage class and the record’s ID is retrieved.

The AddOrdersPage.aspx.cs file containing the Page class is typically located in:

...\<Application Folder>\Orders\AddOrdersPage.aspx.cs

Add the code customization below to retrieve the new record’s ID.

C#:

public AddOrdersPage()
{
    this.PostCommitTransaction += new

    BaseClasses.ITransactionalComponent.PostCommitTransactionEventHandler(Page_PostCommitTransaction);
}

private void Page_PostCommitTransaction(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    OrdersRecord rec = this.OrdersRecordControl.GetRecord(false);
    int tempId = rec.OrderID;
    //Do your processing here
}

Visual Basic .NET:

Private Sub Page_PostCommitTransaction(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs)
    Handles MyBase.PostCommitTransaction

    Dim rec As OrdersRecord = Me.OrdersRecordControl.GetRecord(False)
    Dim tempId As Integer = rec.OrderID
    ‘Do your processing here
End Sub
