Hallo,

What is wrong with this trigger:

I want the trigger to fire(to run the statement : UPPER(SUBSTR(:OLD.namn, 1, 1)) || SUBSTR(:OLD.namn,2); after new record is inserted in this table.

The thing to happen should be this:

I want that script to be run on the same record that has been inserted in the table. So the UPPer command should run on the namn field that has been inserted in the table. Hope anyone can“help me.

CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER AFTER_INSERT_ROWins_ON_test after insert

   ON test
  REFERENCING NEW AS NEW OLD AS OLD
  FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN :NEW.namn :=UPPER(SUBSTR(:OLD.namn, 1, 1)) || SUBSTR(:OLD.namn,2);
-- :NEW.namn := UPPER(SUBSTR(:OLD.namn, 1, 1) || SUBSTR(:OLD.namn), 2);
EXCEPTION
  WHEN OTHERS THEN
    raise_application_error(-20000, 'ERROR IN TRIGGER AFTER_INSERT_ROWins_ON_test: ' || SQLERRM);

END; /

Thanks in advance

Roland S
