why not create a view like this ...  

SELECT 'Y' AS FLAG
FROM DUAL
WHERE TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'HH24MI') BETWEEN '0800' AND '1600' UNION ALL
SELECT 'N' AS FLAG
FROM DUAL
WHERE TO_CHAR(SYSDATE,'HH24MI') NOT BETWEEN '0800' AND '1600';   that would have the flag on and off without an update ... and you can other tables with
this view to implement the actual logic ...

Hi all,  

I need help in order to create a following "mechanism".  

I have a table where is a column called window_open and it has two values 'Y' and 'N'  

Now I need to automate the update a single row based on following rules:  

If time is between 08:00-16:00 the value on that window_open column should be 'Y' during other period the value should be 'N'. How can I do this and automate the task...  

Thanks in advance,  

Joshua
