a how can I do this in Informix question



Hello,

I have a problem in Informix that I need to solve.

I have table

Table ABC
{
Field1	integer,
Field2	char(5),
Insdate	integer
}

What I want now is when an insert occurs on this table on the fields (Field1 and Field2) that afterwards the fields Insdate is filled with the date of today but stored as a number in the format YYYYMMDD.

Example:

Insert into ABC (Field1, Field2)
values (1, "Wim");

then should the query

Select * from ABC;

return:

Field1		Field2		Insdate
1		Wim		20051027

My collegue found how to do it in Oracle and now I want to prove it also can be done in Informix. I hope. Else me and my big mouth :-)

So help me please.

Thanks,

Wim
