I have a table called user with colums like UnitID, FactoryName,MonetaryLimit,Location,City etc

What I wanted to do is

After a user Updates his information I wanted to track which are the columns that are updated by the user. Not the updated row but the exact columns in a particular row which are updated.

I have created an update trigger, but it not giving the exact result . Write query

thanks
