I want to create a trigger where when do an update statement it has to be less than the price already in the table. How would I pull the data already in the table to compare it against the attempted UPDATED data?

What should be the reaction if the new price isn't less than the price that is already in the table?

It will just not allow the update statement to happen and gives an error.

if exists(select * from yourTable t1 join inserted i on i.productId=t1.productId where t1.price <= i.price)
BEGIN
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
RAISERROR('Price(s) should always be less than existing prices', 16, 1)
RETURN
END

With the given information I was not able to give more help.
If that isn't what you want then please give table structure and sample data.
