I have a table:

ID
SettingName
SettingValue (tinyint)

What I want, is to automatically increment SettingValue to the next logical bitwise value, if that makes sense? i.e: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 etc...

is this possible to do somehow even if it is using triggers of some kind on the insert?

Thank you.

ok so I got that done by creating a TRIGGER on insert.
But now, what is a record in that table is updated?
I want to see if they changed a certain columns' value and if so, to roll it back so it goes back to the original value before the update.
thoughts?
