I'm using IF UPDATE() function in the update trigger.
the problem is -- that bloody function evaluates to true all the bloody time for a text field, even if text field is not present in the update clause.

(I'm using SQL Server 6.5 with SP5a)

microsoft article about "IF UPDATE() functionality is broken in service pack 5, 5a" applies only to insert triggers....

any ideas? suggestions? am I crazy?
thanks in advance.
