SQL LDF Viewer allows you to open, read and preview the complete log activity in an SQL Server database. Activity preview includes; Transaction name, transaction time, table name, query etc. As SQL Server saves all its log activity and transaction details in .ldf file, it is easier to analyze it to detect the possible reason of SQL Server corruption.

Quick SQL LDF Data Recovery

To avoid complete scanning of corrupt SQL Server database for recovery SQL LDF Reader will be a great help. You only need to provide the last backup of your SQL log file with associated MDF file (Primary SQL database file). Software will scan & export the complete data into SQL Server and SQL Server compatible format; after thorough analysis.

Add LDF & MDF File

Using the LDF Viewer software you can add single SQL LDF file at a time and it will auto detect associated MDF file; if both are present at same location. Otherwise; you will need to separately browse the MDF file location. In case you want to recover the corrupt SQL Server database, you have to provide the LOG details for last backup of your SQL data.

Preview All SQL LDF (log) Transactions

SQL LDF Reader scans and loads all the tables present in SQL database and generates a preview for all transaction activity saved in LDF file. It helps to view SQL Server transaction log with fields like: Transaction, transaction time, Table name and query. You can view the records with Login Name Authentication for Insert, Delete, Update etc with their details such as; class, id, name and status.

3 Options to Export SQL Log File

SQL LDF File Reader lets you export the SQL log file queries as SQL files in three different ways:

Export as SQL Server database

Export as SQL Server compatible SQL scripts

Export as CSV file

These exported queries as SQL files can be further used to get the corrupt SQL database in its working stage.

Export as SQL Server Database

If you choose to export the SQL ldf file queries directly to SQL Server database then you need to provide the valid database credentials like: server name, database name, username and its password.

Note: Export the data on some other location in SQL Server in order to avoid the overwriting of existing database

SQL Server Compatible SQL Scripts

If you want to move recovered data to some other SQL Server database then it is recommended to export the SQL ldf file queries in SQL Server compatible SQL scripts. This SQL script can be used to export the data on any SQL Server as per your requirement. read more

Export Selective Tables

While exporting the SQL ldf file queries, you can check or uncheck the tables to save only selected data. If you want to recover sql ldf file data from any specific table then select and export the specific folders as SQL data base, CSV or as SQL Server compatible script.

Save And Load Scanned Log File

The scanning of loaded log file can be saved for future use. A scanned copy of Log can be saved as an STR file to avoid rescanning it every time there is a need. Just load the saved STR to work on the scanned Log file.

Option to Sort Log File Elements

An auto sorting option is available within SQL LDF file Reader software to re-arrange order of the list of items. You can sort the elements according to their properties like: transaction, transaction time, table name, transaction name and query.

Recover Database of Latest Versions

Analyzed SQL Log file can be used for the recovery of the corresponding corrupt database. The software is supportive to the latest versions of SQL Server. Thus, a database of 2012 & 2014 SQL Server versions can also be recovered successfully.

Supports 64 Bit Windows Versions

Being a Windows based application; all versions of Windows OS are fully supported, including Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1 and the latest Windows 10. Both; 32 Bit and 64 Bit of Windows Operating System editions are supported.

Log File Forensics without SQL Server

SQL Server Log file analyzer promotes the forensic analysis of Log files for examination of SQL Server activities. The software is a standalone tool to view SQL transaction log and doesn't need Microsoft SQL Server installed on the machine for analysis.

Support Advance SQL Data Types

Now the sql log file viewer also supports the advance data type like Datetime2, datetimeoffset, sql_variant, hierarchyid, geometry & geography data types for the advance forensics of SQL Server 2014 & below versions transaction log files.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAYS

A meager carelessness from SQL Server administrators ended us up with a corrupt SQL database. Coming across the SQL Log Analyzer tool via online search results made us familiar with its excellent facilities that made things easier, precise and guaranteed.

Vanessa Bruni, Russia

SQL ldf viewer is one of the finest applications that I have worked with till present date. We had been trying to restore MDF database using LOG files of the same but failed poorly. That's when a client of our organization suggested using this application that demanded - No efforts or time.
