Hey all

I am going through the pain stacking process of sorting out someone else code.

So I am decided to recreate a new database to sit alongside the old one then to use triggers to transfer data between both tables.

Now I have an issue with a it looping IE

A trigger on each table to update the other. Once one updates it should update the other but as both tables have triggers it just will loop which will cause an issue.

Is their a way to stop this from happening ?

Hope this makes sense and hope you can advise.
