Hi,

Great work! Maybe we can merge what you have done when you are done. (see at the end my comments)

But first, let's address the issue. If you take a look in the sql trigger (table), you will find:

SELECT
    @field = MIN(ORDINAL_POSITION),
    @char = (column_id - 1) / 8 + 1,
    @mask = POWER(2, (column_id - 1) % 8),
    @fieldname = name
FROM SYS.COLUMNS SC
INNER JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS ISC
ON SC.name = ISC.COLUMN_NAME
WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(@TableName)
AND TABLE_NAME = @TableName
AND ORDINAL_POSITION = @field
GROUP BY column_id, name

The issue is : WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(@TableName) It should be : WHERE object_id = OBJECT_ID(@TableSchema+'.'+@TableName)

My comments :

• Install audit trail script for SQL Server Database.sql : remove USE BILLING
• Improve docs to help better understand which script to run and the order of script execution (if applicable)
• When I insert/update/delete rows in the AuditTables table, I have to run "Install audit trail script for SQL Server Database.sql" to update the trigger. (maybe it could be great to have a sql trigger in the AuditTables table. So, it makes development and maintenance easier.

I can help with the documentation.

Thanks!
