Hi Guys,I am currently setting up a server side trace that will run constantly on a server for one particular database. The data is then being loaded back into a table.When looking back on some of the data that has been loaded in I am really confused as there appears to be quite a lot of dynamic sql being ran under events 10 and 12 (batch completed and rpc completed) meaning that the users query count is being massively inflated. The person who supposedly ran this dynamic sql said that they don't know anything about it, leading me to believe that it may be some sort of background job that I should maybe filter out. The trouble is that I don't know how to filter it out and it.Here is the code for my trace definition...[code="sql"]ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_StartTrace] -- sp_StartTrace 'CoreDW' -- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here @database nvarchar(100)ASBEGIN -- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from -- interfering with SELECT statements.

As you can see I am already applying a few filters to the trace to filter on database name etc. if anyone could tell me how to filter the unwanted rows away that would be great.** edit **Sorry I should have mentioned, this is happening for all users and not just the one user I mentioned.
