q; please check this trigger

Apparently I could not insert a text field to another table from INSERTED in
a trigger.
It seems the following is working, do you see any problem joining INSERTED
to the mySrcTable which is the table that has this trigger
INSERT INTO myRemoteDatabase.dbo.myDestTable (myTrID,myFirstName,myBigText)
SELECT i.myTrID, i.myFirstName, p.myBigText
FROM INSERTED i INNER JOIN mySrcTable p ON i.myTrID = p.myTrID
WHERE (i.myTrType = 'In')
Thanks,Hi Jim
From Books Online "Create Trigger" topic
In a DELETE, INSERT, or UPDATE trigger, SQL Server does not allow text,
ntext, or image column references in the inserted and deleted tables if the
compatibility level is equal to 70. The text, ntext, and image values in the
inserted and deleted tables cannot be accessed. To retrieve the new value in
either an INSERT or UPDATE trigger, join the inserted table with the origina
l
update table. When the compatibility level is 65 or lower, null values are
returned for inserted or deleted text, ntext, or image columns that allow
null values; zero-length strings are returned if the columns are not
nullable.
If the compatibility level is 80 or higher, SQL Server allows the update of
text, ntext, or image columns through the INSTEAD OF trigger on tables or
views.
If you use an instead of trigger your logic will have to be different as
mentioned in one of your earlier posts. If you are not going to hold more
than 8000 characters in this column change it to varchar.

q; past and future date

How should I find the dates for 3 days past and 5 days future. Such as
TodayDate-3 and TodayDate+5 base in the date only, discarding the time?One method:
SELECT SomeData
FROM dbo.MyTable
WHERE
MyDate >= DATEADD(dd, -3, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, GETDATE())) AND
MyDate < DATEADD(dd, 6, DATEDIFF(dd, 0, GETDATE()))
Hope this helps.

q; output to a text file

Is it possible to send the output of a query to a text file in a stored
procedure? When I run stored procedure in Query Analyzer I am able to do that
and I am wondering if this is possible in a automated way?Not directly. But indirectly, you can use xp_cmdshell and BCP or OSQL. Note that the file is created
by the database server. If you are on 2005, you can also call an Assembly, if that suits you better.

I have 10 tables (T1Orj,T2Orj,…T10Orj) and I need to find modified rows fr

bak tables, and T1Orj, T2Orj, … T10Orj tables have different table structu

Do you mean the Orj tables all have the same columns? Why? It would be a lot
simpler to combine them into one. Duplicating tables is almost always a
mistake.
If they are all different then I don't understand how you expect a loop
would help you.

Whenever possible please post enough code to reproduce your problem.
Including CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements usually helps.
State what version of SQL Server you are using and specify the content
of any error messages.

--|||Thanks for the reply, some type of loop might help me if I can get column
names and table names created dynamically from a table. Then I will perform
only one insert in my code.
