Question Use Trigger to Update Data in another DB

I am new to creating triggers in SQL. My scenario is as follows:

I have two Databases on the same server - A & B

When the value of Column X is updated in Table AA of Database A, I need to update the same value(s) of Column Y in Table BB of Database B.

These tables are linked into an Access front-end and set up as one-to-many (one Column X to many Column Y's), but I cannot set up cascading updates in Access when the tables are linked in. In SQL, these 2 tables come from 2 separate databases.

How can I create this trigger so that when Column X of Table AA in Database A is updated, the trigger goes to Column Y in Table BB of Database B, checks for the OLD value of Column X and updates found instances with the NEW value of Column X?

Any help provided would be much appreciated.

Does this help?

Code:
CREATE TRIGGER trg_YourTrigger ON dbo.AA
FOR UPDATE
AS
UPDATE	B.dbo.BB
SET	ColumnY = I.ColumnX
FROM	inserted I
INNER JOIN
	deleted D
ON	I.PrimaryKeyInTableAA = D.PrimaryKeyInTableAA
WHERE	B.dbo.BB.ColumnY = D.ColumnX
