Hi people!!!
I have a table called "orders" with fields "a","b" and "c".
I want to make a INSERT only of fields "a" and "b" by Java and at this moment c=a*b;
Is it possible?

I think you are saying you want your Java code to insert fields "a" and
"b" and have "c" automatically set to a value derived from "a" and "b".
If so, you can accomplish this with an insert trigger.

Or you could just insert a, b and a*b yourself . . . . or am I missing
something here?

Hi,

Another solution may be a view as follows.

create table orders (a int, b int);
create view orders_v as select a, b, a * b as c from orders;
