 | The first seems like an appropriate solution. Fireing a trigger-function
that returns null.
If I however try to implement a function getnull in sql I fail. Defining the
trigger requests a function of type trigger while definition of a function
forbids using trigger as return type. So RTFM - there's however just an
example for C. I don't want to engage the compiler.... :-/
