the problem is that prepared code is referenced by oid, not name. so any structural references need to by dynamic. what I do for change log is to have one change log table with table_id and column_id attributes that refer by to my internal meta_table and meta_column tables. this always works and is in the end, I have found, a bit more flexible, allowing you to search for changed columns, for example. but I still generate the change triggers. in this case from in my meta_table and meta_column tables I note which table/columns I want changes tracked. those can be changed at any time, but the change log triggers need to be recompiled. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
