Hi all,

I've inherited the administration of two SQL Servers one 7.0 and the other 2000. We are looking into upgrading to 2005 so I'm gathering all the info I can on the DBs and applications using them.

Now, how can I check if a DB is currently in use? Is there a way to find out when a DB was last accessed?

By the way, I've never done DB administration so you can figure out how desperate I'm getting.

Thanks all for your help,

GS

You can leave profiler running to gather info.
It will have an impact on performance but if your server isn't too stressed it'll be ok.

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
