Trigger Issue

Hi Guys.

I have a trigger that updates a field in a table from a field in a
second table. Seems straightforward enough, until we find that the
fields are of type ntext length 16.

The SQL works in SQL Analyzer but when i copy the exact code to create
a trigger a Error 311: Cannot use text,ntext or image columns in the
'inserted' and 'deleted' tables.

Any ideas?

here is the full trigger

CREATE TRIGGER updatelastactionotes ON [TABLE_NAME]
FOR INSERT
AS
declare @tmpid bigint
declare @notes varchar(350)

set @notes =(select convert(varchar(350),notes) from inserted)
set @tmpid =(select servicereqno from OLD_TABLE from inserted)

update NEW_TABLE set lastactionnotes = convert(varchar(350),@notes) where servicereqno = @tmpid
