Title: RE: Avoding Mutation of Table trigger

This can be simply solved by eliminating the WHEN condition on the trigger and encapsulating that condition as part of a If .. THEN ... END IF statement.   Raj ______________________________________________________ Rajendra Jamadagni              MIS, ESPN Inc.

It has to fire on certain condition, meaning I have a WHEN condition also.   WHEN Condition is like :        when ( NEW.CR_ACCOUNT is not null and   NEW.CHQ_DT is not null )   Since, in DELETE mode NEW value contains null  ,  it does not fire.   This Problem would have solved if could write WHEN Condition as          when ((INSERTING or UPDATING) and NEW.CR_ACCOUNT is not null                   and   NEW.CHQ_DT is not null ) OR                 (DELETING and OLD.CR_ACCOUNT is not null  and   OLD.CHQ_DT is not null )   But in WHEN condition one can not write INSERTING or UPDATING.   How do i go about it ? Any round about way ?   Thanks & Regards.   Naba
