Creating an custom application simulating an SQL Server Profiler.

Hi,
I have an requirement for doing some custom action in my
application when any SQL server table is modified. One of the ways,
which I think it is achievable is to write an custom application which
listens to SQL queries fired on the particular Database. This will
enable me to do the custom action, when any DML statement is trapped
through my custom SQL profiler. So, more or less, it boils down to
writing/using something similar to the SQL Profiler tool. Any help
would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Nimesh

|||Thanks for the suggestion, Uri. I think you are referring to query
notifications feature in SQL server 2005. But, I got to have this
custom application to work with SQL server 2000 as well.

Creating a View

I have 2 tables. T1 is for current data. T2 is a audit tracking table for T1. There will be several records in T2 for each 1 in T1. T2 has a Action Field that stores the last action and a auditID to record changes on T1.

What I want to do is create a view that shows the current records in T1 and all the records in the audit tabel T2. I can do the Join but this would duplicate all the fields.

I am looking for something like this:

Select 'AuditID' AuditID,TD.*,'Action' Action from TrakrDetails TD
--Union
Select TDA.* from TrakrDetails_Audit TDA
order by AuditID desc

This craps out because there are 2 additional Fields in T2.

Any Suggestions?

Thanks
JonSorry but you have to list out all of the columns...

If you want to show columns that aren't in the other table you can use a literal like space, or you can use a null

SELECT ' ' AS Col1,
, Null As Col2
, Col3 FROM myTable99
UNION ALL
SELECT Col1
, Col2
, Col3
FROM myTable00|||Thanks Brett

Your way works.

Normally I would have done it this way but it seemed like it was the long way around (thats the way it normally goes for me).

I thought there might be a easy way I was missing.

Thanks Again
Jon|||As an aside NEVER use SELECT *

(Except for analysis, never for code...save yourself a lot of pain)
