assuming this table id is an IDENTITY field

CREATE Procedure spAddSomething
(
@SSNO char(9),
@FirstName nvarchar(15),
@MidName nvarchar(15),
@LastName nvarchar(25)
)

AS

INSERT tblWhatever (
SSNO,
FirstName,
MidName,
LastName
) Values (
@SSNO,
@FirstName,
@MidName,
@LastName
)

SELECT @@IDENTITY AS 'Table_ID'

GO
