i need to get the id of the new added item list using UpdateListItems method please help! i need to know the id in order to be able to use addattachment()

sitesWebServiceLists.Lists listService = new sitesWebServiceLists.Lists();


listService.Credentials =
System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultCredentials;

listService.Url = "http://MyServer/sites/MySiteCollection/_vti_bin/Lists.asmx";

UpdateListItems operation returns response in Xml format, where row element contains ows_ID attribute which corresponds to list item ID.

Example

How to grab the list item ID from UpdateListItems result

XmlNode resultsNode = listService.UpdateListItems(strListID, batchElement);
var owsID = resultsNode.SelectSingleNode("//@ows_ID").Value;
