Hi,
My problem is that I haven't inserted a field in tables i.e last update date field. I want to get the the last update date of insert, update and delete queries. The problem is that I have to extract it from the existing system i.e i cannot make any changes to database. The only thing that comes to my mind are the ldf log files but those files are not readable. How can I convert those files in simple text format so that i cah access them easily and scan the file for recent inserts, updates and deletes.
Regards,
Deakins.
