I am trying to view SQL generated by Linq to SQL in the SQL Server Profiler (2005).

I can see the sql sent to the server from anything except for linq to sql.

I'm betting that I need to change event selections for the trace, but not sure what else to select.

I am currently only selecting this: SQL:StmtCompleted - TextData & SPID

I don't want to use data context logging nor the SQL Debug Visualizer. I need to use the profiler.

Why can I not see the LINQ to SQL queries?

Thanks.

EDIT

I added SQL:BatchCompleted and that hasn't helped.

EDIT 2

I added the event RPC:Completed which is found under the Stored Procedures category in event selection. This worked!

Are you including enough of the options in the SQL Profiler to see the BatchCompleted events, too?

You need RPC call - the queries are executed as exec_sql.

Brilliant. Thanks!

Figures...I'd still expect stmt completed to work surprised it doesn't

There is also an option in the data context class to enable log in the client side. When log is enabled is possible to see the queries.
