User Defined Data type Problem

Hi Friends,
I have a small problem hoping that you experts can resolve it. I need
to make a user defined data type for a field. My field name is
FINDG_NO(PK) and its datatype needs to be
(Five fillers alphabatic then today's date, and then two fillers at the
end alphanumeric)
Here is the example:
ABCDE12/29/05N2.
The date should come automatic each time the new record is being
entered. the fillers needs to be filled by user.

Can someone help me pleaseeeeeeeee

Moe

May this one help you

create table test
(val varchar(100) not null,
data varchar(100))
alter table test
add constraint pk_val primary key (val)

create trigger testtrig on test
instead of insert
as
begin
declare @id int
select @id = len(val) from inserted
if @id <> 7
rollback
else
insert into test select left(val,5) + convert(char(10), getdate(),103) +
right(val,2),data
from inserted
end


insert into test  values('ABCDEN2','th
is is a sample')

Thanks Amish, i tried this and it didnt work. This is the first time i
am working with sql server so please bear with me. Is there any way i
can do something in the User Defined Data Type. I was going through Pub
Database in sql and it has some  UserDefinedDataTypes
. Can you tell me
something like this or the code of how to do it. Or i can simply go
into table's properity and in Constraint i can write some code so that
the FINDG_NO field can only take that type of data in the same format
as mentioned in my first message.

Please help me freind.

Thanks
Moe

User defined datatype, default, rules or the more modern concepts "constrain
ts" will not help you
here as all they does is to constraint what information you are allowed. The
y do not change things
for you.

It should work
what problem you face in the script or can you tell me what data you
get in the table after running the script.
