286 What is true about stored procedures?

The creation of which database objects will
287 not cause a DDL trigger to fire?
 Which two program declarations are
288 correct for a stored program unit?

(vpd). In order to have the vpd functionality, a
trigger is required to fire when every user initiates a
session in the database.
What type of trigger needs to be created?
289

You have a row level BEFORE UPDATE trigger on

the EMP table. This trigger contains a SELECT
statement on the EMP table to ensure that the new
salary value falls within the minimum and maximum
salary for a given job title. What happens when you
290 try to update a salary value in the EMP table?

Examine this code:
