Q: INSERT, UPDATE and how to catch rowid

Please help me to solve this problem.

  I'm inserting a row into table using command

  INSERT INTO my_table
( column list )

  VALUES
( values list );

    After little while I will need to update this new inserted record.   Using index is good, but I'm looking for better performance.

  Is there any chance to catch a rowid of the new inserted record for   later use? ( The same problem coming with UPDATE too )

    Thank you
