Carlos, I think you have a misunderstanding about what a trigger is or does. A trigger is, in its most basic form, an automatically executed stored procedure.
The ability to detect an event is pointless withouth the ability to do something once that event occurs. We have to have the one (stored procedures) in order to get the other (triggers). Be patient, I am sure triggers are coming soon.

I think that triggers they are a lot more important than stored proc. because stored procs they can be implemented in the front end application. In the version 5 should be implemented triggers instead of stored procedures. regards Carlos J Souza ] from brazil [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004-06-28 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
