[thelist] [MySQL] return values from query

Is there a way to return a field value from an insert query? Instead of
(1) inserting a new record and then (2) a select to get the match of the
new record and get the row id from the query (auto increment, primary
key), is there a way I can INSERT the new record and get mysql to tell
me the row_id value without querying a second time?
