track changes made to data

63 New Member
Hi all

Is there someway to track changes made to data in a mysql database?

Like someone changes a phone number in a record on a form -Is there a way to find out what changes were made to what fields for what records and when they were changed and what the record looked like before the change? And also record the logged in user that made the change? I know that there is supposed to be a seperate table for that.

Thanks

I have moved this thread to the MySQL forum; you may find the people here a bit more helpful.

Does anyone know if there is a way to track changes in a text field like word does? I am using a SQL2000 database and can use either VB.Net or Access. The field is either ntext or Varchar.

Hello there, Does anyone know of a way to track changes to an SQL Server database so that I can easily run those changes at a later date? That is, I want to make schema changes, and record those changes so that I can execute them 6 months later on a copy of the orignal database. Thank you kindly for any ideas anyone may have John
