Create a trigger that inserts values into a new table when a column is updated

This is for all changes and all columns, but you can modify how you like:

USE [DB]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO

CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[trMyTrigger]
ON [dbo].[MyTable]
AFTER INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE
NOT FOR REPLICATION
AS
    -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
    -- interfering with caller queries select statements.
    -- if an update/insert/delete occurs on the main table, the number of records affected
    -- should only be based on that table and not what records the triggers may/may not
    -- select.
SET NOCOUNT ON;

    -- Determine if this is an insert,update, or delete action

    DECLARE @action AS CHAR(1)
    DECLARE @count AS INT
    SET @action = 'I' -- SET action to 'I'NSERT by default.
    SELECT @count = count(*) FROM DELETED
    IF @count > 0
        BEGIN
            SET @action= 'D' -- SET action to 'D'ELETED.
            SELECT @count = count(*) FROM INSERTED
            IF @count > 0
                SET @action = 'U' -- SET action to 'U'PDATED.
        END

    IF @action = 'D'
        -- THIS IS A DELETE RECORD ACTION
        BEGIN
            INSERT INTO myBackupTable
        SELECT *,GETDATE() AS changeDate, 'DELETE' AS task FROM DELETED
        END
    ELSE
        BEGIN
            IF @action = 'I'
                 -- this is an INSERT record action
                BEGIN
                    INSERT INTO myBackupTable
                    SELECT *,GETDATE() AS changeDate, 'INSERT' as task FROM INSERTED
                END
             ELSE
                -- this is an UPDATE record action
                BEGIN
                    INSERT INTO myBackupTable
                    SELECT *,GETDATE() AS changeDate, 'UPDATE' as task  FROM INSERTED
                END
        END

Something like this should do what you need. You would have the INSERT statements below insert values indicating the operation performed into MyLogTable.

CREATE TRIGGER [dbo].[TRIG_MyTable]
ON [dbo].[MyTable]
AFTER INSERT, UPDATE

AS 

DECLARE @INS int, @DEL int

SELECT @INS = COUNT(*) FROM INSERTED
SELECT @DEL = COUNT(*) FROM DELETED

IF @INS > 0 AND @DEL > 0 
BEGIN

    -- a record got updated, so log accordingly.

    INSERT INTO MyLogTable
    SELECT 'New Values', getdate() FROM INSERTED

    INSERT INTO MyLogTable
    SELECT 'Old Values', getdate() FROM DELETED

END

ELSE 
BEGIN

    -- a new record was inserted.

    INSERT INTO MyLogTable
    SELECT 'Insert', getdate() FROM INSERTED

END

If you wanted to you could also add columns from INSERTED and DELETED to your log table as well if you wanted to capture the actual column values that got inserted or updated.


create trigger trigge on abs
instead of update as

declare @idd int , @pricee money
  select @idd= ProductID from inserted 
  select @pricee = ListPrice from inserted 
  insert into prod values ( @idd , @pricee)
  print ' cannot change'
