How to get OLD and NEW values while writing Triggers in SQL Server 2005

 DML triggers use the deleted and inserted logical (conceptual) tables. They are structurally similar to the table on which the trigger is defined, that is, the table on which the user action is tried. The deleted and inserted tables hold the old values or new values of the rows that may be changed by the user action. For example, to retrieve all values in the deleted table, use:

Here's an example update trigger:

create table Employees (id int identity, Name varchar(50), Password varchar(50))
create table Log (id int identity, EmployeeId int, LogDate datetime, 
    OldName varchar(50))
go
create trigger Employees_Trigger_Update on Employees
after update
as
insert into Log (EmployeeId, LogDate, OldName) 
select id, getdate(), name
from deleted
go
insert into Employees (Name, Password) values ('Zaphoid', '6')
insert into Employees (Name, Password) values ('Beeblebox', '7')
update Employees set Name = 'Ford' where id = 1
select * from Log

This will print:

id   EmployeeId   LogDate                   OldName
1    1            2010-07-05 20:11:54.127   Zaphoid
