That's why I so wish I could have standard edition running on my PowerEdge T110. Technically I could afford it, but I don't because I haven't found a need for it.

In SQL Server 2008, the tracing tool is called SQL Profiler. Not sure what it was called before. But it has the very useful option of tracing directly into a table. That way you can interrogate the trace table with standard SQL selects and filter with WHERE clauses and it makes consumption of the trace data a whole lot more palatable. When you start a new trace, just look for the checkbox that is called something like "Trace to table". Then you must specify a target database and table into which the trace should be written.

I am currently using JAWS 12, but was using JAWS 11 with the same SSMS before. I don't like the tracing tool so much... it is a battle to get the information I need from it. The query analyzer is a bit cumbersome as well. Regards.

I would like to hear from anyone who has successfully worked in this environment using a screen reader. What tools worked for you? I once tried Enterprise Manager with SQL Analyzer on an older computer which I had some good luck with; however, I was told I could not use that tool on my newer machine. I currently have MS SQL Studio Manager on this Windows 7 64-bit machine. I am currently using latest build of JAWS 11 and trying to convince management to purchase upgrade to 12. Though we have some SQL Server 2000 DBs; we are also going to be adding some SQL Server 2008 or newer DBs. Any thoughts?
