Hi Everybody,
i want to select and update from a table in the same time, for that reason I've got the Mutating error..i do not want to write more than one trigger on the table to solve the problem and no packages.
and because i need to update just one column so my question to you is:
Is the PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION the main solution to the Mutating table problem? and can i use such solution in one After insert or update trigger ??

Thanks in Advance,
bahaa

No. Absolutely a bad idea. An autonomous transaction is final and cannot be undone if the actual DML fails.
THE ways around a mutating table problem are a redesign (often a mutating table problem is the result of a design-flaw) or using multiple triggers and package.

You need to create a package which will record the record id's that you passit.
In a Before Update trigger, you pass in the id of each row that you are updating.
In an After Update trigger (at statement level) you then go through these recorded row ids one at a time and do your processing on them.
