TableB is a dummy and you use it only to trigger the change event and at the same time indicate that the change in TableA (the one you're really watching) has been committed. When a change in TableB is initiated (which triggers the event), the change in TableA has already been committed.

If you want something generic, you have to look into DCOM (assuming that the manager's computer can handle that) or some other means of sending and receiving messages between variuos instances of your application within a network.

Let's consider:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
update TableA
END TRANSACTION
What is going to happen and in what sequence?
Also AFAIK you can not tell within trigger which fields you're updating. What if I'm interested only in one particular field update for TableA and don't want to raise any events if I'm updating other fields?
Thanks.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
