You could use a transaction log parser. Database needs to be in full recovery (should be anyway...

No. You would do this through either Windows built-in backup, or through whatever backup software you're using for everything except databases. Regular file backup.

I've never seen having two case statements in a query make a difference in its performance vs one case statement.

Open the package in Business Intelligence Development Studio. Should be in the same directory on the Start menu as Management Studio is.

Parsing just checks syntax. Compiling checks for objects.

Of course, that raises the question of why you'd want to...
