Thanks Jackie (and Romy),

I'll take that as definitive for now.

Two camps here I guess

 1) To have a IInsert / IUpdate property value that is just a value - hence
as a string not quoted when it gets parsed by FDO and turned into SQL at the
provider level.  This is flexible but does requires DB specifics such as
'sysdate' for oracle or 'Now()' for SQL so is non transferrable

 2) To allow computed or function expressions that would be tricky to manage
at the provider level to ensure the datatype returned from the function
matched the property in the datastore.  And I'm not sure if the Oracle
sequence example would fit into either a computed value or a function?

Back to DB triggers...
