For each event listed in the **trace_event_id** column, all available columns are listed in the **trace_column_id** column. Not all available columns are populated each time a given event occurs. These values do not change for a given version of the [!INCLUDE[ssDEnoversion](../../includes/ssdenoversion-md.md)]. For a complete list of supported trace events, see [SQL Server Event Class Reference](../../relational-databases/event-classes/sql-server-event-class-reference.md). > [!IMPORTANT] > [!INCLUDE[ssNoteDepFutureAvoid](../../includes/ssnotedepfutureavoid-md.md)] Use Extended Event catalog views instead. |Column name|Data type|Description| |-----------------|---------------|-----------------| |**trace_event_id**|**smallint**|ID of the trace event. This column is also in the **sys.trace_events** catalog view.| |**trace_column_id**|**smallint**|ID of the trace column.
