how do you don't know the column names??you have to.there is no way to iterate through column names....you can get all of the column names from information_schema.columns view though.select column_name from information_schema.columns where table_name = 'yourTableName'Go with the flow & have fun! Else fight the flow  |

| The trigger is specific to a table. How can you not know the column names of the table? And why do you think you need to iterate through the column names anyway? I smell a conceptual issue here...why don't you tell us why you think you need to do this? |
