Chapter 5 Building Triggers and Procedures

Creating Other Triggers

You can create your own triggers from the property sheet of a table (or view, if supported by your DBMS).

You can write a trigger from scratch directly in its property sheet, but we recommend that you use a trigger template and/or trigger template items to define the trigger code. These allow you to create triggers in a modular fashion, to make re-use of your trigger code easier and give your triggers more portability.

For more information, see "Working with Trigger Templates and Template Items".
