How do I find tables/field in Dynamics

by  JonCross  Posted    (Edited  )
You can turn on a log of Dynamics SQL actions, do something in the area of interest in Dynamics then look at the log to see which tables have been accessed.

- Find file DEX.INI in you Dynamics directory
- Find the lines:
SQLLogSQLStmt=FALSE
SQLLogODBCMessages=FALSE
and edit them to TRUE
- restart Dynamics and navigate to your area of interest
- In your dynamics directory delete DEXSQL.LOG (it will be quite big by now !)
- Change a field in the form you are interested in, then save the change.
- Look at the DEXSQL.LOG file
- BINGO !!

Make sure you edite the DEX.INI file entries back to FALSE else you will end up with a giant log file.
