"Current" log? What mistake are you trying to cover up?

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

the windows application log will likely hold detail too, do you intend to trim that as well?

declare @CoverUp varchar(16)

select @CoverUp = ['True'|'False'] --> make your choice

if CoverUp = 'True'

begin

exec sp_update_resume @parm_make_backup_copy='Yes'

exec sp_send_resume @parm_email_address='some.headhunter@any_corp.com'

exec sp_pack_up_yourdesk @parm_priority='Immediately'

end

--> exit the building

exec sp_update_resume @parm_make_backup_copy='Yes'

exec sp_pack_up_yourdesk @parm_priority='Immediately'
end
--> exit the building

That would be a t-sql for URAR (update resume and relocate)

You can probably edit the log files directly using Notepad.
