Jan writes "Is there an example available that describes how a trigger would be assembled to replicate the value in one column to another within the same table. Whenever column A is either created or changed, columm B mimics it. I have a situation where a particular report writer will not recognize the "BIT" data type, and the application will not allow me to change the original data type in the DB, so I need to replicate the data into a "tinyint" data type and then use it in to develop my report. Any thoughts?"

Have you considered a computed column? That would be much easier. Or a view?
