Hi. I have a table which consists of 100 fields I'd like to track over time. I want to have a record of all changes made to all entries in the specific field, who made the change, when it was made.

Can someone point me toward a good resource so I can learn?

thx.

You could also add an audit trail trigger to the table.

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