Update Trigger on specific row

  • Hi

    I'm trying to get a trigger set up to update a second table when any row in a first table is updated, but only want to update the specific row into the second table. Is there a property I can call / reference that will return which row the update occurred at?

    Thanks

  • Check out BOL "Using the inserted and deleted tables" for more info.  To summarise, the 'inserted' table is a temporary table that contains a copy of the record (or records) that have been inserted or updated.  Query this table within the trigger to determine which rows to insert into your second table.

  • Hi Phil,

    Thanks for the response.

    BOL = Books On Line, right? I'm searching them now. Thanks.

    Perfect. Exactly what I need.

    Thanks!
