MySQL Subqueries

I was wondering if something like this is possible in MySQL:

SELECT * FROM tmpTable WHERE id = 1 AND ISTRUE(UPDATE tmptTable SET value = 1)

Or

SELECT * FROM tmpTable WHERE id = (INSERT INTO tmptTable (name) VALUES ('test'))

Or the same query with UNION or something

What i'm trying to do with this is SELECTing only the records that are updated/by the ID's they are inserted. I want to know if it's acutally possible to do an Update or Insert query INSIDE an other query.

Looks like you are trying to do composable DML. No this isn't supported in MySQL. – Martin
