From: Pat on 5 May 2010 14:03 The SQL 2005 server I am using has mulitple databases. The database MyDB is one of them. I make a DDL trigger to prevent deleting columns in tables in MyDB. Here is the script to make the trigger: CREATE TRIGGER Safety ON DATABASE FOR ALTER_TABLE AS RAISERROR ('Table schema cannot be modified in database. You must disable Trigger "Safety" to drop or alter tables!', 16, 1); ROLLBACK ; The trigger works well for MyDB. Whenever deleting a column in a table inside MyDB, the transaction is not allowed. Now, I want to set up the same trigger not only monitering MyDB but also monitering other databases in the server (i.e., apply this trigger to all databases). I have put the trigger (same script) in the master or model database, but the trigger does not kick off whenever deleting a column in table in whatever databases. Pat

Pat This kind of trigger is part on database level, not a server level, so you will need to add this trigger to every database "Pat" <Pattt(a)newsgroups.nospam> wrote in message news:5AF33093-061E-4152-BEEA-C9D6A3BFAF1F(a)microsoft.com... > The SQL 2005 server I am using has mulitple databases.
