Not very experienced on triggers mysefl, but if you're talking about two
tables in the same database,
that can be done and you'd be better off taking advice on how to
implement that from somebody other than me :)
But if you're *really* saying you have 2 *distinct* databases, then
you're out of luck :(.
Triggers can work across tables on the same DB, but not across DBs.
Am I wrong on this one?
