Subject: Auto-update a field when record is changed

Message-ID: <200308222332.47526.sfbarbee@yahoo.com> (raw)
Folks,
I was wandering if there was a feasible way to automatically update a field
in a table, say 'revision_date' in a record whenever any other field in the
record is changed. My attempts to use a trigger caused repeating loops and
bombed with error. I would like to be able to update such a field
automatically anytime a record was updated. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Stuart
