Use the SQL Server View Trigger Editor to define the stored procedures that exist for a view in a SQL Server 2005 or 2008 physical model.

To define SQL Server view triggers

   The SQL Server View Trigger Editor opens.

2. Select the view from the View drop-down that contains the view trigger that you want to define.
3. Select the view trigger in the Navigation Grid that you want to define and work with the following options:

   Note: Click New on the toolbar to create a new view trigger. Use the Enter filter text box to filter a very large list of view triggers to quickly locate the one that you want to define.

   Name

   Displays the view trigger name. You can change the trigger name in this field.

   Schema

   Note: This option is only available if you have selected the Execute As User option in the Type drop-down list.

5. Click the Code tab to define the code type for the view trigger.
6. Click the Expanded tab to view expanded code for the view trigger.
