q; a trigger code

I have table T1 and I am trying to extract some date from T1 table based on
inserts, updates and deletes. The destination table T2 has three fields F1,
F2, F3, so I need something like
Insert into T2 (F1, F2, F3)
Select (F1, F2,Type)
From T1
Type should be defined based on Insert, Update, or Delete. This will be my
first trigger, Can anyone write this trigger for me?I would NEVER write any code that had table names like T1 or T2, and columns
named F1, F2, F3. Is this real (and I hope not), or do you have table DDL
that you can post?
Give us more to work with, and you may get some good assistance here.
For example, the the code snipplet, is TYPE a column name, a literal, a
varable? Where did it come from?

That was just to simplify the case. I do not have actual table definitions
yet. Type is what I am trying to determine in the trigger. This will be
INSER,UPDATE,DELETE trigger, can I somehow figure it out in the trigger?

I'm guessing this is some sort of audit mechanism? If so, lots of info
available online regarding auditing, my friend Google found this one for me:
http://www.nigelrivett.net/AuditTrailTrigger.html
Incidentally, this type of activity, if done poorly, can cause BLOCKING
on updates and inserts. Just tossing that out there, since you've been
complaining all week about deadlocks.

because of INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE.
If you are exploring some form of auditing, the archive table 'should' have
additional columns for the user and current date/time. Those are also
available internal to the Trigger.
Let us know how to help you when you're closer to the need.

CREATE TRIGGER trMyTrigger ON T1
FOR INSERT, UPDATE
AS
if exists (select * from inserted)
Insert Into T2(ID, Name,TrType)
Select ID, Name,'Insert'
From inserted
Where Name='TestData'
else
Update t
Set t.Name=i.Name, t.TrType='Update'
From inserted i INNER JOIN T2 t on i.ID=t.ID
GO

identical in schema to the action table.
If there is an INSERT, [inserted] will have row(s) and [deleted] will be
empty.
If there is an UPDATE, both will have rows,
[deleted] has the state of the data before the UPDATE, and
[inserted] has the state of data after the UPDATE
If there is a DELETE, [deleted] will have row(s) and [inserted] will be
empty.
So you check both tables to determine what action fired the Trigger.
You probably should refer to Books on Line for additional information.
