Trigger if updating

b) we will establish a connection, run this package once in a month and disconnect.

we dont do any more stuff in that same session/connection.

does the 3rd party application owner care you are doing this?

Many 3rd party software owners would say "you are no longer supported if you do that" We have informed them and they are fine with this. November 06, 2012 - am UTC it seems risky, I wouldn't let you do it.

We dont want (logic inside) the Trigger to be executed for this new-module (as per business use-case), so i took the following steps.

What is happening in the when clause is it is checking for each row. I would be nice had oracle able to identify this at statement level and eliminate row level checking.
