I want this trigger to run a procedure that would query the database for these changes, save the changes to XML, then save that XML file to the server, and then trigger a web client, using xp_commandShell I suppose, this web client then would have access to this xml file. And if for some reason the web client failed, that xml file will still be on the server for the next time that web client succesfuly runs. Is this even possible? Thanks,

Jeff"

anything is possible, but it is an awfully lot of resources just to create the xml on real time mode, not to mention for every changes made, the file gets generated

why not do batch processing for n-period?

the trigger writes on an audit table, the audit table gets queried by an apps that will save the data into xml file, or a job that will bcp out the data into xml file
