trigger for time update

  • I am writing a sql trigger where i need to update the time in every 2 hour in following table

    id ScheduleTime

    1 5:01 AM 1

    2 5:05 AM 1

    so after 2 hour it should be

    id ScheduleTime

    1 7:01 AM 1

    2 7:05 AM 1

    any ideas?

  • Why a Trigger and not a job?

    Why even store that value if it can be calculated?

    Can you be more specific on what are you trying to accomplish?

  • A trigger won't really do that. Triggers are things that happen because of data events, limited to update, insert, delete statements, or DDL events, like creating or dropping objects.

    If you need something to happen at a scheduled interval, you need a job, not a trigger.
