Hi,

Sorry if I wasn't very clear with my question. I was hoping to obtain the functionality such that I could do something similar to:

CREATE TRIGGER IF NOT EXISTS ....

Because I usually get a trigger already exists in my script. I might be missing something.

The script basically does the basic things like create database if not exists, create table if not exists, etc. I was hoping the same thing for triggers maybe? Is this possible?

Regards,
Adrian Co

There is a TRIGGERS table in the information_schema
Eg.
select Trigger_Name from TRIGGERS where trigger_name = 'TI_AGENT' AND trigger_schema = 'PROPLINK'

Subject: Determining if a trigger exists

Hi,

Whats the simplest way to determine if a trigger already exists?

i.e. For tables you have: CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ...

Is there a way to do

CREATE TRIGGER IF NOT EXISTS

I'm using MySQL 5.0 btw.

Thanks!

Regards,
Adrian
