Hello, First of all I apologize for my poor english speaking.
I have some problems with SQLite triggers. I have a table tab(UniqueID INTEGER PRIMARY KEY, champ1 TIMESTAMP). And when a date ("YYYY-MM-DD") is inserted in champ1, I would like to convert it to timestamp. I would like to modify new.champ1 value in a "BEFORE" trigger, but everything I tryed doesn't work : **this trigger can't be created : error message 'SQL error : near "new" : syntax error' ------------------- CREATE TRIGGER trig_insert BEFORE INSERT ON tab FOR EACH ROW WHEN (new.champ1 LIKE "%-%") BEGIN new.champ1=(SELECT strftime("%s", new.champ1)); END; ------------------- **This trigger is well created, but when it executes, I have this error message : 'SQL error: no such table: main.new' ------------------- CREATE TRIGGER trig_insert BEFORE INSERT ON tab FOR EACH ROW WHEN (new.champ1 LIKE "%-%") BEGIN UPDATE new SET champ1=(SELECT strftime("%s", new.champ1)) WHERE UniqueID=new.UniqueID; END; ------------------- So do you know if it is possible to modify new columns ? It is important to me to modify them in a "BEFORE" trigger, because if I do it in an "AFTER" trigger, I would have to use an UPDATE query and it would lead to a deadlock (I also have some triggers on the UPDATE statement...). Thank you for helping Have a nice day Charly CAULET ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
