Hello, I've used your SQLVer to keep track of changes in my application databases. It has been a life saver several times. Catching people lying about changes to SPs and what not has been very helpful. I've never used any of the performance tuning features you talk about and was wanting to get some documentation on that if you have anything available.

Thanks,

Patrick

Feel free to ask any questions about SQLVer. I have a lot more to say about it, and will add to this documentation wiki as I am able.

+* listing changes
+* retrieving old copies of objects
+* supporting run-time logging (think debug and performance tuning logging)
+* find a string in SQL source code anywhere in the database
+* identify slow queries
+* identify connections that are hogging resources and blocking object access
+
+and more.
+
+SQLVer is installed by running a single SQL script file.  It is safe to install in both dev and production environments.
+
+It will create a schema in your database named sqlver and will add all needed objects there.
