| Can anyone please let me know how do u use a column name that i've retrieve from the function col_name, in a query.(SQL2000)I've got a trigger, i loop through a table and check witch columns have being updated, then i get the column name from the column that's being updated(using col_name) and want to use that column name in a select statement, but sql sees the name as a string and not a column name |
