Problem
Given a Table with a column col1 like this:
Is there a way for a trigger for update to decide which of the following update statements was executed ?
A:
B:
create table MyTest (
col1 int NULL,
col2 decimal(7, 2) NULL
);
insert into MyTest values ( 1, 1.1);Is there a way for a trigger for update to decide which of the following update statements was executed ?
A:
update MyTest set col1 = 3;B:
update MyTest set col1 = 3, col2 = 1.1;Solution
It makes a difference if this is going to be a set-based trigger, or if you are designing it to handle only one row at a time, but this should get you pointed in the right direction.
IF
UPDATE(col1)
AND UPDATE(col2)
AND EXISTS(SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE col1 = 3 AND col2 = 1.1)
BEGIN
DO STUFF
END
IF
UPDATE(col1)
AND EXISTS(SELECT * FROM inserted WHERE col1 = 3)
BEGIN
DO STUFF
ENDCode Snippets
