Make second trigger ?DDL_on_DDLTrigger? which fire then anybody drops the 
?DDLTrigger?.
And don?t forget to hide ?DDL_on_DDLTrigger? trigger ;)
PS If somebody tries to drop or disabe ?DDL_on_DDLTrigger?, ?DDLTrigger? 
catch him and vice versa.

Hi all

Well the drop is happily happening, so as for Raj race, the drop wins
every time.

The reason I want to catch it is to log the drop to a special hidden
place.

Just in case someone tries to drop it to cause some mischief.

This is especially relevant in the development environment where one of
the user logins have DBA (don't ask) thus able to drop the trigger.

let me put it this way ...=20

if you shot yourself  dead, would you still call 911 and report
yourself?=20

since drop will acquire a ddl lock (loose term), execution will be
prevented as execution also needs a lock to stop the underlying object
from being modified. If what you want must happen, this will become a
classic example of a race condition. Basically first one to get the
lock wins, in this case the 'drop' got the lock first.

obviously I could be wrong, but a correction is appreciated.
