Transaction definition/Server Management

[Bill Bergen]

I need to keep a table indicating the number of "transactions" or Logical Units of Work (LUW) against each database each day. I know transactions are defined with a Begin and End statement but most of our software is from 3rd party vendors who don't use begin and end. How can I determine how many transactions (not necessarily I/O although that might be nice in the future) has occurred against each database. Books On Line does not address the question of transactions other than to say use the Begin/End statments. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

SQL Profiler will capture this information for you into a file or table.
