I am using triggers for all the events (insert,delete,update) please find the details below. trg_delpointtable BEFORE DELETE ON pointtable FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE pp_delpointtable() trg_insdelpoints AFTER DELETE ON pointtable FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE pp_insdelpoints() trgins_pointtable AFTER INSERT ON pointtable FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE pp_inspointtable() trupd_pointtable AFTER UPDATE ON pointtable FOR EACH ROW EXECUTE PROCEDURE pp_updpointtable() Basically, this each trigger modifies the content of other dependent tables.
