    Block by application or log by application name

    SQL 2000, possibly moving to 2005 Mode 80 I have a set of purchased apps that use SQL security rather than Active Directory. Each user needs their own SQL account with full read/write/exec rights as the apps use combinations of stored procs and direct updating. Within the apps, users have...
