    I have a table (for example PERSONS) with several fields (NIF NAME AGE).
    I have a cursors than read the differents fiels tat have this table inside a trigger fron another table that contain all the fields of the tables.
    This cursor save the name of the fiels inside the variable @FIELD.
    I need to read the value of the several records of the table like:

    @FIELD='NIF'   <--(CURSOR)

    SELECT @FIELS FEOM INSERTED  --> select nif from inserted(persons)

    This sentence doesn't works. How can I do?

    Thanks, Otto Martinez.

    Hi,
    you maye use a variable to generate the whole statement then use the exec command
    Declare @sql NVarchar(200)
    set @sql= "Select " + @Fiels +" from inserted"
    exec @sql
