You will have to wait for MySQL 5.0. This version will have SQL triggers. > 2. How can i restore multiple files into database ? I am not sure if I get you right. If you mean how to restore backups, it's easy with MySQL: 1. Make the backups using mysqldump, e.g. mysqldump --all-databases > backupfile 2. Restore what's in "backupfile": mysql < backupfile Have a look at http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/mysqldump.html for details.
