set id primary key from on table to another table as foreign key

Question

I have three tables

Table Customers :

customerid    LastName    FirstName    Phone

Table class :

classid    numofstud    numofstud    totalprice

Table Orderlist :

orderid    customerid (FK_order_customer)    classid (FK_order_class])

I want to set the last customerid and classid from their tables into orderlist table.I use identity increment for them.

SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["miztahrirtest2DB"].ToString());
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into customer (firstname,lastname,phone) values (@firstname,@lastname,@phone)", con);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("firstname", firstnametxt.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("lastname", lastnametxt.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("phone", phonetxt.Text);
con.Open();
 cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();

SqlCommand cmd2 = new SqlCommand("insert into class (numofstud,numofclass,totalprice) values (@numofstud,@numofclass,@totalprice)", con);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("numofclass", Session["Numofclass"]);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("numofstud", Session["Numofstud"]);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("totalprice", Session["totalprice"]);
con.Open();
 cmd2.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();

SqlCommand cmd3 = new SqlCommand("insert into orderlist (customerid,classid) values (SELECT MAX(customerid) FROM customer,SELECT MAX(classid) FROM class)", con);

con.Open();
cmd3.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();

cmd and cmd2 are working correctly but cmd3 has an error

ncorrect syntax near the keyword 'SELECT'.
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'SELECT'.

what should I do now?

Answer 1

Change your cmd3 command text to:

insert into orderlist (customerid,classid) SELECT MAX(customerid),MAX(classid) FROM customer, class

or you can use SCOPE_IDENTITY() to get last identity so your code would be:

    SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["miztahrirtest2DB"].ToString());
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("insert into customer (firstname,lastname,phone) values (@firstname,@lastname,@phone);SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()", con);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("firstname", firstnametxt.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("lastname", lastnametxt.Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("phone", phonetxt.Text);
con.Open();
 Int32 customerID = (Int32) cmd.ExecuteScalar();
con.Close();

SqlCommand cmd2 = new SqlCommand("insert into class (numofstud,numofclass,totalprice) values (@numofstud,@numofclass,@totalprice);SELECT SCOPE_IDENTITY()", con);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("numofclass", Session["Numofclass"]);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("numofstud", Session["Numofstud"]);
cmd2.Parameters.AddWithValue("totalprice", Session["totalprice"]);
con.Open();
 Int32 classID = (Int32) cmd2.ExecuteScalar();
con.Close();

SqlCommand cmd3 = new SqlCommand("insert into orderlist (customerid,classid) values (@customerId,@classId)", con);
cmd3.Parameters.AddWithValue("customerId", customerID );
cmd3.Parameters.AddWithValue("classId",classID );

con.Open();
cmd3.ExecuteNonQuery();
con.Close();

Answer 2

Your select statement is incorrect, try this:

SELECT
    MAX(cust.customerid),
    MAX(cls.classid)
FROM customer cust, class cls

Answer 3

要从表中获取last value ，可以使用last()函数

SELECT LAST(column_name) FROM table_name
