I think the purpose of the trigger is to capture all non-application changes. You can't by-pass the trigger easily, unless of course you disable it entirely. It has the advantage of being largely transparent (if written correctly, of course)...regards of where the file is accessed from. It has

There is still a hole to the wrapper approach. Assuming you are trying to catch folks that use the ED (or AE) command, we have to assume that these folks have access to TCL. If you can get to TCL, and you are wanting to hide your tracks, you could still copy your record to a dir file, then

Troy, You _can_ use 64-bit files on 32-bit Windows 2003 Server, NTFS is quite happy with files over 2GB. I would describe multi-level files as an 'old' way of getting some of the same functionality as you get with UV Distributed files. You could have STOCK,HIST1 and STOCK,HIST2 ... if you
