How is it that you can declare the default value of a column on insert
but not on update?
You can do this without triggers (at least on 8.3).
UPDATE foo
SET field1 = 2,
field2 = default
WHERE field3 = 22
I just tested it and it will set the value back to the default. The
caveat here is that it won't FORCE the value like it would with a
trigger. So while the trigger would happen automatically, using this
approach, you'd have to remember to also update that field any time you
did an update.
