hi, I want to track every change made to several tables...and was wondering what is the best way... What are my thoughts at the moment are to make a table like this :
id, table_name, field_name, old_value, new_value, timestamp and triggers to do the logging. but this will probably generate alot of traffic (not so worrying at the moment) As I side effect of this I want to be able to make a snapshot of the TABLE at specified time.. any ideas on this too... tia. P.S. Other way would be to make a duplicate table and transffer the whole record, but dont think this is a good solution ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: if posting/reading through Usenet, please send an appropriate subscribe-nomail command to [EMAIL PROTECTED] so that your message can get through to the mailing list cleanly
