FinanceFerret/2.0/sql/event

About

• Version: Copied, with only slight changes, from VbzCart tables. This version is suitable for re-use in other projects, but perhaps should be renamed EventLog or Events because the MySQL syntax highlighter thinks "log" is a keyword.
  • 2009-08-30: suggest LogEvent ("Log" as prefix so all log tables are together, type of log as singular)
• Notes
  • Have to use "Ev" prefix for field names because When and Where are keywords.
