Hi All,
Thanks in advance!
I want to generate an XML file in a Update trigger script.
Only the updated record needs to be exported to the XML file.
How do I know which record is being updated in the Update trigger?
Thank you so much!
Regards,
SeanSean,
Could be more than one record. Use the DELETED and INSERTED pseudo/logical
tables available within the firing of the trigger.

values remain the same:
select *
from inserted
If you mean those that have actually changed:
select *
from inserted
join deleted
on <some unchangable value, like a surrogate (identity)
key>
where inserted.col1 <> deleted.col2 --not nullable
or (inserted.col2 <> deleted.col2
or (inserted.col2 is null and deleted.col2 is not null)
or (inserted.col2 is not null and deleted.col2 is null) )
If you mean something else, then please provide more info.

I need all the records that have changed and inserted.
That means a modified record and new record.
For example:
CREATE TRIGGER trgUpdate
ON User_Master
FOR UPDATE
AS
DECLARE @.FileName varchar(50),
@.bcpCommand varchar(2000)
SET @.FileName =
REPLACE('c:\result_'+CONVERT(char(8),GET
DATE(),1)+'.xml','/','-')
SET @.bcpCommand = 'bcp "SELECT * FROM KDMNN..User_Master Where UserID=' +
CONVERT(varchar(5),@.@.identity) + ' for xml raw" queryout "'
SET @.bcpCommand = @.bcpCommand + @.FileName + '" -U sa -P -c'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @.bcpCommand
I have a problem detecting the @.@.identity. I could not get the information
of which records have been modified and inserted.
Thank you very much!
Regards,
Sean

need to have another key that you can expect not to change. Since you
insert the values, you know them and can trust them.

Thanks for you information.
It helps a lot!
I am trying to copy the modified or new data from User_Master into a
User_MasterTemp table using an Update trigger.
CREATE TRIGGER trgUpdate ON User_Master
FOR UPDATE
AS
Delete From User_MasterTemp
Insert into User_MasterTemp Select * From Inserted
GO
Then do a exporting to XML file from the temp table using an Insert trigger.
CREATE TRIGGER User_MasterInsert ON [dbo].[User_MasterTemp]
FOR INSERT
AS
DECLARE @.FileName varchar(50),
@.bcpCommand varchar(2000)
SET @.FileName =
REPLACE('c:\result_'+CONVERT(char(8),GET
DATE(),1)+'.xml','/','-')
SET @.bcpCommand = 'bcp "SELECT * FROM KDMNN..User_MasterTemp for xml raw"
queryout "'
SET @.bcpCommand = @.bcpCommand + @.FileName + '" -U sa -P -c'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @.bcpCommand
Hopefully, the code can work. I am doing the troubleshooting cause the
script in the Insert trigger hangs the SQL Server.
Regards,
Sean
