Default New feature of V10 -- how backward compatible - 12-01-2009 , 10:27 AM






One of the features of Version 10 that is most appealing to me (I hope I
describe it accurately) is the capability for scripts to be automatically
launched when a layout becomes active, or a variety of other events. I
believe it is called a script trigger.

What type of experience will a user of a previous version have when working
a DB that has these triggers designed? Will they siimply be disregarded? Are
they best not used at all in a mixed environment?

All script triggers will be completely ignored in versions prior to 10.
If you are relying on the triggers to do anything important (i.e.
maintain data integrity, automatically presenting the correct layout
version, etc), then you should not use them in a mixed environment.
