Try the documentation. http://mysql.com/triggers sends you to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/triggers.html from there you can click on "CREATE TRIGGER SYNTAX" to get to http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/create-trigger.html which clearly shows that syntax is not valid.
Alternatively, you could try it yourself and see that it fails. -Sheeri On 4/7/06, Adrian Co <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > Sorry if I wasn't very clear with my question.
