  When I use Profiler, save the trace to a sql table, I note that the table field "EventClass" has numbers like 65526, 65534..... not textual descriptions.

  What do those numbers mean?

  TIA,

  Hi,

  You can find event class descriptions from sys.trace_events table.

  You can run select * from sys.trace_events to see the contents of the table and you can filter them accordingly using where clause.

  Hope this helps.

  Let me know if you need anything else.

  Regards,
