>>> Due to some reason ST05 is not supporting our cause

what do you mean????

Is it generally not working, are you not allowed to use it, or is it not the appropriate tool?

This is the production issues and it is not advisable to use ST05 in production . So Just built BAP program to turn on the SQL and then call a specific program then turn off the trace . Thanks for asking . Program has been built and under testing now .

Thanks

You should be careful running ST05 in production, but I've never heard that it's generally not advisable to use it.

that is nonsense !!

you can run SQL, if you are allowed and carefu, at any time. I have done it probably more often than

you will do in the rest of your life.
