Ok, this works but does not return the number of times the procedure is modified. Anyway is a nice way to return last...

You can use the PIVOT operator, but I think this is not as flexible as you would expect.

Anyway this code does the trick.

DECLARE @Invoices TABLE (

InvoiceNumber int,

BillName varchar(10)

You can use database triggers to accomplish this task.

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[ChangeLog](

[LogId] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,

[EventType] [varchar](50) NOT...

That's right Gail, I'll edit my previous post.

Mjarsaniya, you can use the dynamic sql when the columnname is determined at...

The problem is with the variable, you can't use it that way. You should define the whole alter statement in a string variable and the execute it:

DECLARE @sql nvarchar(4000)
