I want to make a Database of information on the equipment that exists in our mud (Realms of Despair). We have an auction channel that people auction off equipment on. I wanted to know if it was possible for a trigger to save an item's statistics into the database in zmud from simply looking at the auctioned item's definition. An example of one item:

Current bid on this item is 300,000,000 gold.
Object 'circle of mists'...
It is a level 50 armor, weight 2.
Locations it can be worn: waist
Special properties: dark
Races allowed: Half-Orc Gith Drow
Classes allowed: none
Genres allowed: rogue fighter aberrant shaman
Alignments allowed: evil good
This armor has a gold value of 5000000.
Armor class is 14.
Affects damage roll by 4.
Affects hit roll by 1.
Affects hp by 35.
Affects save vs poison by -4.
Affects intelligence by -3.
Affects wisdom by -3.
Affects dexterity by 2.

Okay now obviously there is a lot of information that needs to be recorded. If this is possible please help me out I would be most thankful. The most important part of this trigger though is I am curious if one item can replace another if the level is lower. For example the item above is level 50. If a level 49 version of the same item appeared on auction I would like the database to record that the item is level 49 and not level 50. Is this possible? Thanks for any help you can give me.

You can find numerous entries on "database script" with a search. For instance, this one in the Finished Scripts forum:
Realms of Despair -- Equipment Database Script

ahh thank you indeed.. I never knew you could search back for past scripts.. I of course checked their first to no avail. Once again you save my game playing experience.
