Hi,

I want to have all-in-one trigger, defined like this:

CREATE TRIGGER MyInsertDeleteUpdateHandler
ON MyTable
FOR DELETE, INSERT, UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
(...)
END

Now, how can I tell why this trigger was fired (what event caused
trigger to be fired) - was it DELETE, INSERT or UPDATE?

Is there something like this: @@event_type,
so I could do for example IF (@@event_type = DELETE) (...)

Of course I can create 3 triggers instead of 1, to be sure what event
fired my trigger.

I can also count records in _deleted_, _inserted_ tables or to do
JOINs with it. But, _inserted_ table is common for UPDATE and INSERT
events..

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Hubert
