Hi guys,

Basically i am trying to return the ID of the added child record. My current code is....

CounterfeitEntities db = new CounterfeitEntities();

                int rowcount = Convert.ToInt32((flx_counterfeitParts[flx_counterfeitParts.SelectedIndex, 0]));

                var countpart = db.CounterfeitParts.First(c => c.CounterfeitID == rowcount);
                countpart.CounterfeitPartsImages.Add(new CounterfeitPartsImage
                {
                    CountImageComment = txtCommentInput.Text,
                    CountImageURL = txtImageLinkInput.Text
                });

                db.SaveChanges();

I have then tried various ways of getting the ID of the added child such as...

string anything = countpart.ChildID
string anything = countpart.CounterfeitPartsImage.ChildID

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You can do ID on the Added entry.

You just need to create the object before and do the .add method, save, then you can use id.

CounterfeitEntities db = new CounterfeitEntities();

int rowcount = Convert.ToInt32((flx_counterfeitParts[flx_counterfeitParts.SelectedIndex, 0]));

var countpart = db.CounterfeitParts.First(c => c.CounterfeitID == rowcount);
CounterfeitPartsImage image = new CounterfeitPartsImage
                {
                    CountImageComment = txtCommentInput.Text,
                    CountImageURL = txtImageLinkInput.Text
                }

countpart.CounterfeitPartsImages.Add(image);

db.SaveChanges();

int id = image.Id;
