You can do what you are asking with Access but you can't use a trigger. You
need to use a form or control event. Depending on your actual requirements
one of the following four events will work for you:
1. Form's AfterUpdate event
2. Form's BeforeUpdate event
3. Control's AfterUpdate event
4. Control's BeforeUpdate event
The Change event of a control is inappropriate for this task since it runs
for EVERY character typed in the field. So if your field has 5 characters,
the change event will run 5 times whereas the before and after update events
run only once per change.
