I haver zero experience with triggers in MySQL. Learnt them in school (Oracle environment).

I have a table which already has a datestamp column for insert date.

I want to update a Record_Touched field whenever any record is touched in this table. What is the best efficient way of doing it?

Thank you…

    Create that field as a TimeStamp and set ON UPDATE CURRENT_TIMESTAMP

    As described, I do not believe that you need a Trigger.
