Sql trigger to print

[JustXtreme]

hello all,

i'm pretty new to sql and was wondering if it's possible to fire a print command from a sql trigger.

what i want:
I want to print the latest record inserted into a table to a printer when it's entered.:confused:

Off-hand I do not know of a way to do that. I would probably try to do it from within the application code instead of in the SQL.

you can. depends on your dbms. mysql uses something like


\! [command]


to execute. you'd use lpr to print stuff.
