| Elsie B writes "Help - I'm new to SQL Server & my boss wants me to work wonders!Is it possible to dynamically declare variables in T_SQL?I need to write a generic trigger which can be applied to several tables, and so would like to dynamically declare the variables I need based on the fields I pull back from a query on syscolumns.Also is it possible to return the name of the current parent table from a trigger - rather than have to change the table name every time the trigger is applied to a different table. I have tried several combinations of object.parent.name - with no success so far.Thanks in advance." |

| Frankly this is not a good approach, it's better (and easier) to write the triggers specifically for each table, rather than trying to create a cookie cutter approach that works for all of them.Can you describe what your triggers are supposed to do? |
