That's what I thought. Thanks!

CONSTRAINT does not exist in mysql.

You can use a trigger to deal with the issue, which is obviously less
than ideal.

Hi,

Is it possible to restrict Inserts and Updates to meet certain
conditions?
In one of my tables lets say field A, B and C can be NULL, but not
all at once. Depending on what type of item I want to store, A needs
to be NULL, but B and C need values, for other types A needs a value
but B and C can be NULL etc.
Is it possible to implement this checking logic on the database level
via CONSTRAINTs or something similar?

Best Regards,
Dav
