i've found the solution threads on changing a column on insert. works fine. question: - will one package serve for all such triggers, or does there need to be a package defined to support each table? my o'reilly book doesn't say, nor do the threads i found.

Hello, I have a very simple table, and want to create a trigger that updates the date column entry (with the current date), whenever a row gets modified. Is there a simple way of fixing this, or would I have to create 3 extra triggers, a package, etc., as described in most posts about mutating table errors? Could you please explain to me WHY this error happens here (I have not been able to find a clear explanation of what causes them)?

I have seen examples for getting around mutating table errors if you either need access to the :old or the :new values within a trigger. But what if you need access to both? Or is this even possible (I'm fairly new to triggers). I have to execute a select count(*) from trigger_table where

I am getting an error on a simple 1-row I-SQL delete statement that a different table may be "mutating" and the transaction is then rolled-back. I understand what this means, and have fixed "mutating" errors before. But I cannot for the life of me trace-thru in the...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
