Question

I want to make a trigger in ms sql server which saves every insert,update or delete had been made in my database and which user made the change.Something like a log file or exactly a log file.
What i’ve made so far is this:

CREATE  TRIGGER Log_Creators_Modifiers ON Quotation
FOR INSERT,UPDATE AS 

  DECLARE
     @ChangeType NVARCHAR
  BEGIN
  /* 'created' for an INSERT, 'Delete' for DELETE, and 'modified' for UPDATE. */
  IF INSERT()
    BEGIN
        SET @ChangeType ='CREATED';
    END

  ELSE IF UPDATE()
    BEGIN
        SET @ChangeType = 'MODIFIED';
    END

  ELSE IF DELETE()
    BEGIN
        SET @ChangeType = 'DELETE';
    END

 END

Any help pls?

Not hugely easy but as ever someone has got there beofre you and save you the work

Audit triggers

does that help at all

or maybe this one where the nice man has even done the script dynamically to add the audit to all the tables

More triggers

I wouldn’t write this myself – just copy what’s already there
