                                            | Hi, I am writing a single trigger in T-SQL (in SQL Server 2000) for Insert, Update, Delete on a table.Inside the body of that trigger I want to perform operation based on what event (insert or update or delete) has occurred.How will I know and catch the event inside the trigger body.Any code example will be highly appreciated.Thanks in advance,Rabi |

                                          | It is probably simpler and more efficient to do a differnt trigger for each one.  You can tell by doing a count of the inserted and deleted tables.  If both have rows, it is an update.CODO ERGO SUM  |
