To Auto Timestamp A Row
Set row type as "timestamp"
Default: CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
On Update Current_Timestamp: checked if you want the timestamp to update when the row changed, not checked to only timewstamp it on creation.
This is an equivalent in code:
CREATED timestamp NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
UPDATED timestamp NOT NULL default now() on update now(),
Note: mySQL limitation is that you cannot have two TIMESTAMP columns with defaults that reference CURRENT_TIMESTAMP.
USEFUL?
