Hi everyone,
I am newb to sqlserver n i m doing a project for damage confinement in datbases. for that i need to read sql server 2000 's database logs.
as from those logs i want to know what information r stored there. I had tried to read using DBCC command but it only gives data in binary format plz tell me a way to read logs in readable form. i cant use ant tool for doing this since in my project i will be reading logs time by time n it will be an automated process.

any kind of help is appreciated. thanx a lot in advance. my emailid is gargmanoj@gmail.com.
plz reply asap.

Except for DBCC LOG, the only other method available is to use something like Lumigent's Log Explorer:
