Selecting occurs when you submit the query. Triggers can watch columns and act on changes, but they are on someone else's connection, the updating process connection. You could copy their keys, the date-time and the old city or row to a history table using a trigger, then use that in your query.

db2_num_rows
DB2_NUM_ROWS(3) 1 DB2_NUM_ROWS(3)
db2_num_rows - Returns the number of rows affected by an SQL statement
SYNOPSIS
int db2_num_rows (resource $stmt)
DESCRIPTION
Returns the number of rows deleted, inserted, or updated by an SQL statement.
To determine the number of rows that will be returned by a SELECT statement, issue SELECT COUNT(*) with the same predicates as your
intended SELECT statement and retrieve the value.
If your application logic checks the number of rows returned by a SELECT statement and branches if the number of rows is 0, consider modi-
fying your application to attempt to return the first row with one of db2_fetch_assoc(3), db2_fetch_both(3), db2_fetch_array(3), or
db2_fetch_row(3), and branch if the fetch function returns FALSE.
Note
If you issue a SELECT statement using a scrollable cursor, db2_num_rows(3) returns the number of rows returned by the SELECT state-
ment. However, the overhead associated with scrollable cursors significantly degrades the performance of your application, so if
this is the only reason you are considering using scrollable cursors, you should use a forward-only cursor and either call SELECT
COUNT(*) or rely on the boolean return value of the fetch functions to achieve the equivalent functionality with much better perfor-
mance.
PARAMETERS
o $stmt
- A valid stmt resource containing a result set.
RETURN VALUES
Returns the number of rows affected by the last SQL statement issued by the specified statement handle.
