When you use the Database Trace log as a troubleshooting tool, it might be helpful to add your own comments or notes to the file. For example, you can specify the date and time of a particular connection, the versions of database server and client software you used, or any other useful information.
To annotate the log file:
Open the DBTRACE.LOG file in one of the following ways:
Use the File Editor in DataWindow Designer. (For instructions, see the User’s Guide.)
Use any text editor outside DataWindow Designer.
Edit the log file with your comments.
Save your changes to the log file.
