Interesting ...
Suppose I wanted to add a function to my 4D app to allow end-users to
create new tables. This presumably could be accomplished using XML and
METHOD SET CODE.
Now, we release a program update. Any tables added by the end-user could be
recovered using GET MISSING TABLE NAMES and
Pat,
Not in the XML, but you could import the table structure (with trigger
properties enabled) and then set the trigger code using METHOD SET CODE. My
approach would be to enable all the trigger properties even if there is not an
immediate need to have a trigger. I don't think there is any
John,
Can you set the trigger code that way as well (using XML)?

The triggers won't run until you set the trigger properties on the table. I'm
not aware there is any way to do that via SQL. You can set the trigger
properties if you create the tables via XML and use IMPORT STRUCTURE.

We have rarely used a trigger, but it is an important thing to know in going
into it. Thanks for telling me. At least I will not spend a week trying to get
a trigger into a table I have created this way. One never knows what they will
be doing, or need in the future. Life has certainly

I know that this feature has been around for a long time ~ 4D 2011.
I am now using 16R6. I now have a method that creates a table with the fields I
want added.
The challenge I am having is setting indexes (and index types), as well as
Primary Keys.
