• Thanks, all good points. The table I'm placing the trigger on though is a password table that an app uses, its seldomly accessed, but I want to alert myself when someone attempts to view our passwords. Yes there is security and encryption in place no the table, but unfortunately other IT staff have access to this software so I wanted to put smoething else in place. I wouldn't use this practice for a table with many ins\dels\upds, but for this instance it's ideal.
