Hello everybody,
I want to take some action everytime a table gets updated. I am not sure
whether Access has anything like "Triggers" ? If not, is anybody aware of
a workaround - basically i want to run a Macro once the table is updated.
The table gets updated thru a website - n the frequency of update is every
one hour.
Your help wud be greatly appreciated
Thank u
Viv.

Hmmm... Good one.
I suppose if the web is linked to a table, you can open a database with a
form that has its recordset set to that same table. Then you can put code
on the form's "After Update" event, which would call the macro after a
record is changed. You can also trigger the form to fire off the "After
Update" event automatically every X hours by putting an "On Timer"
event... just in case.
This would require you to have that database open all the time, though.
