Comments on: SQL Trigger to create .csv file http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/sql-trigger-to-create-csv-file/ Tue, 21 May 2013 15:58:36 +0000 hourly 1 By: fanbot http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/sql-trigger-to-create-csv-file/#comment-49746 fanbot Wed, 30 Mar 2005 07:37:25 +0000 #comment-49746 Zannemarie, As the the first reply stated, use a trigger AFTER INSERT of a record into file B to call your procedure to create the .csv file from file A.
However, if you have multiple inserts from various clients (file B)and you only wish to create a .csv under certain conditions, evaluate the the trigger data from file B prior to building the .csv.

Hope this helps.

That’s how we figured it would be easiest for the client to trigger the event. So the only time there would be an insert, would be when the client clicked the link, inserting the record with their loginname and date/time. Does that make it easier?

Therefore every time you insert a record into B a .csv will be created from A when applying a trigger.
Reading further it appears that you do not wish to have table A dumped (.csv created) every time a record is inserted in B.

Could you explain your process in a little more detail i.e is the .csv to be created once a day or only on insertion of a special type of record in file B?
