If the column to test is known -- e.g. column MyCol --, NEW.MyCol and
OLD.MyCol -- respectively value of MyCol after UPDATE and value of MyCol
before UPDATE -- can be compared.
I may be wrong if you are looking for the column(s) that are really
updated, not if such a column is updated or not. In this case, each
column of the target table may be tested with their respective new and
old values as well.
