I found the default trace a long while back while wondering around in SQL Install files. As soon as I noticed it I had the questions like performance, who set it and such. So I went digging around and was quite pleased with this little trick of Microsoft's :D. It has saved me more the once in various environment when someone asked when something was modified. But what I wanted to know was Adam is there a way to add events to Default Trace? As you said and most probably noticed it doesn't contain all the event. And adding all the events probably is a bad idea because it will grow the log files; but selected few events. Also how can I make it so it saves more then 5 roll-over files?

Thanks.
