Does anyone know if there is a simple way to get the results of a DBCC
INPUTBUFFER() request into a table? I have a process for monitoring
activity that will give me the results of sp_who2 into a temp table,
and want to scroll through the active connections and get the input
buffers into another table for review:

Insert into #TmpWho
exec sp_who2 'active'

Something like that with the dbcc command.

I am using SQL 2000 SP4.

Thanks,

Tom

CREATE TABLE #Inputbuffer(
EventType NVARCHAR(30) NULL,
Parameters INT NULL,
EventInfo NVARCHAR(255) NULL
)
GO

INSERT #Inputbuffer
EXEC('DBCC INPUTBUFFER(<YourSpid>)')
GO

SELECT * FROM #Inputbuffer

Adding WITH NO_INFOMSGS to the DBCC command makes it less noisy.
