magic tables used in sql server are inserted and deleted. when trigger fires, all old data (for deletes/updates) will be in deleted table and all the newdata(inserts/updates) will be in inserted table. also this table will dynamically assume structure of main table on which trigger is created. now you can use them outside of trigger also by using output clause (from sql 2005 onwards)
