is there a good way to approximate a sql trigger within access -
without using a forms after insert event? |

None that I know of or have heard of.
The only way I know to emulate a trigger is to use form events. Unless you are using a different backend than JET. For instance, you could do this if your database engine was MS SQL, Oracle, etc. wrote in message oups.com... is there a good way to approximate a sql trigger within access - without using a forms after insert event? |

Triggers would sure be nice. Access is event driven and unfortunately tables
do not have events. If you are entering data directly into a table, there is not way to automate something like putting a foriegn key into another table. If you are doing appends or inserts into a table, you need to handle anything trigger-like while you are doing it. I'll add that sequences would also be nice instead of autonumbers. -- Jerry Whittle Light. Strong. Cheap. Pick two. Keith Bontrager - Bicycle Builder.

If we're compiling a wish-list, can we have T-SQL as well?
