Learn why this is important<https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentification> Myron, I think you can use triggers to capture when data changes. You can use an on before update trigger which can be set in the table definition. A stored procedure has to be created first. With the store procedure is created a trigger can be created on the table. There are virtual tables sys_old and sys_new than can be referenced within the trigger: select list_of_db_columns into INTO list_of_variables FROM table WHERE CURRENT OF SYS_OLD SELECT list of db columns INTO list of variables FROM table WHERE CURRENT OF SYS_NEW IF some old var <> some new var UPDATE another table SET t_c = .#DATE WHERE 'where clause' ENDIF Ken On Thu, Dec 21, 2023 at 9:56 AM <myron.fineg...@gmail.com<mailto:myron.fineg...@gmail.com>> wrote: Dan, Based on the post under this one we are still working on making the determination as to when data in a row has been changed.

There is an update performed – as I previous mentioned but not on a test for a data change in a row of data in the table. Still working on it. Yes, I didn’t answer your question per se but just wanted to let you know it is still being worked on.

This will include the old values and new values as well as user/datetime stamp. Has anyone done this before and can give me some pointers?
