• Hi,

    I agree with Lynn.

    I'm pretty sure the idea is to introduce you to the UPDATE(Columnname) and COLUMS_UPDATED.

    I did a double take on the UPDATED table answer as I would compare the deleted and inserted tables... I've been caught out before where I've speed read the possible answers and assumed what the question was getting at! Or made up my own version of the possible answers...

    I once got asked in an interview about the UPDATED table in a trigger and then spent nearly 10 minutes explaining there isn't an UPDATED table in triggers... The guy asking the question didn't set it! It goes without saying I didn't take the job!

    I guess the UPDATE() is a quick and dirty way to see if a column was updated, but you would still need to compare the old and new values to see if it actually changed.
