Not exactly. I'm trying to change a PASSWORD() encripted value inside a table that belongs to my system, not to MySQL. Thank you for the insight and tip. Indeed, I've decided to use the triggers approach suggested above, but can't figure out what I'm doing wrong with the triggers, yet.

"In few words, translating PerlMonks documentation and best articles to other languages is like building a bridge to join other Perl communities into PerlMonks family. This makes the family bigger, the knowledge greather, the parties better and the life easier." -- monsieur_champs

to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
