Hi to all,

Does mySQL databases supoort triggers? I just thought that the procedures or actions that are executed whenever something happens to a database is called a trigger.

Is it possible in mySQL to execute a custom function or procedure when a new records is inserted? We have here a timekeeping program in our office which has a mySQL back-end and I want the newly inserted records to be computed by mySQL automatically. The processing must be done on mySQL.

Is that all possible to do in mysQL. I believe that SQL Servers supports triggers and stored procedures, but I want to try out mySQL first.

Thanks and god bless.

yes mysql supports triggers.

...true MySQL does but only with version 5 or later

indeed, but I figured that info could be found in the manual.
