Create MS SQL 2005 Changes Log
Posted on 2009-05-04
I wish to create a changes log for many of my tables in a MS SQL 2005 DB.
I will shortly be allowing our 26 shops access to our main database. They will be able to edit data. Because of this I need a simple log of what they change! I would like to record to a single table the following data:
Table Name, ID of Record Changed, Field Changed, Old Value, New Value, Date/Time, User.
I will then display this information to Managers & Supervisors in a simple Access DB form so we can see what they are actually doing.
Has anyone got an example of the code I require. I'm a relative beginer with SQL so a simple Copy/Paste solution would be great!
I've seen various ways of doing this type of thing but could really do with

Hi
Thanks for these. I 've just had a look and am going to test http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/AuditTrailGenerator.aspx first. I know that this will create plenty of bloat but it really does give me a simple solution to restore data as I choose (if required!).
I'll let you know how I get on.
