Looking for an SQL Log Reader that will show the transaction and the tables affected from a specific time forward

Post by shaw22 » Sun 17 Jul 2022 23:40

Hello,
I am trying to document what happens to the backend tables when an action is performed through the application menu interface.

Will the devart transaction log for SQL server will show me all the INSERTS, UPDATE, DELETE, SELECT and MERGE and the tables and data involved?

The plan I have is to copy the production database to a play database and then connect to play database with the application front end and do transactions and then look at the transaction log using devart transaction log and document what happens when a certain action is peformed through the front end interface of the application

Thanks
