Re: [SQL] auto datetime update on UPDATE?

This is wat I have done to solve the problem.

UPDATE table SET modification_dt = datetime('now'::abstime);

You can update any other field at the same time. This enters the date-time
stamp into the filed. And you can use this format for INSET INTO also.

I hope this helps.
