| you can achieve this by auditing your changesor by adding a timestamp column to your table which is unique ever increasing valueor by proper use of full, differential and transaction log backups_______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenp |

| yes what you need is auditing.for it you don't need to modify the existing schema you just have to add new schema.you can also achieve this by proper backup strategy.another option is to use sql server integrated C2 auditing. but this can slow dow a server which is under a heavy load.http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/maintain/sqlc2.mspx_______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenp |

| well if you can't change your schema, the you're left with proper backup strategy or C2 auditing.Just how many times am i supposed to repeat that????_______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenp |

| if you have no control on the database you are working on and you want to prove you didn't make any mistake... keep the changes you make in your local server instancehave your DBA or someone verify your work...i think the question is of trust... if they can't trust you to do your job properly you should start thinking of moving onthat's how i see your situation, don't stress yourself on thisbut like what Spirit mentioned, you need an audit trail... ask your DBA to create a new database where you store all the changes you make... and prove credibility, ask him to just give you insert permissions on that database audit tables--------------------keeping it simple... |
