I dont know if Im wording this right.
I have a textarea that is entered into a database. When this is edited, I want to store and display a list of all the changes that have been made to it.
Like a conversation in a forum. The reason for this is that I want past changes to be locked from editing.

Would a new database table storing only this text fields data need to be created? Maybe have column for the work request number and a second column for the text entered? But then wouldnt I need an third identifier column so the changes can be displayed in the right order?

Looking for sage like wisdom

Thanks
