Hi
My problem is on two lines, INSERT statements, I get an error saying c_cde
does not exist
INSERT INTO center_changed SELECT c_cde, now(); - My problem is here: I
get an error saying c_cde does not exist, I cant how I can give
center_change table the results. Center table has got many rows so I need
to only get c_cde for only the row that was updated
RETURN NEW;
ELSIF (TG_OP = 'INSERT') THEN
INSERT INTO center_changed SELECT c_cde, now(); My problem is
here: I get an error saying c_cde does not exist, I cant how I can give
center_change table the results. Center table has got many rows so I need
to only get c_cde for only the row that was inserted.

I don't know about others, but I don't see what your problem is. Is the
problem that you are getting the new value in the center_changed table?
That's because you're doing an AFTER trigger ON UPDATE. So you have the
new values. Look at the special values NEW and OLD in the bit of the
manual about trigget functions?
