problems with updates

Hello,

I am having a problem trying to work out how to do the following.

I have many items in a table but want to keep a record, on the table, when just a few of the items have been changed. It is important that the date is kept on the table itself if at all possible.

My original idea, without thinking it through, was to place a trigger on the tabble, which would fire when the table was updated, and then update the table. As you can now see you just ends up with recurrsive firing of the trigger. Any method I think of using triggers causes the samne problem.

I summary I need a way to update a table, when the table has been upadated.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Bryan
