|ClientProcessID|**int**|ID assigned by the host computer to the process where the client application is running. This data column is populated if the client provides the client process ID.|9|Yes|
|DatabaseID|**int**|ID of the database in which the stored procedure is running. Determine the value for a database by using the DB_ID function.|3|Yes|
|DatabaseName|**nvarchar**|Name of the database in which the stored procedure is running.|35|Yes|
|EventClass|**int**|Type of event = 44.|27|No|
|EventSequence|**int**|Sequence of a given event within the request.|51|No|
|GroupID|**int**|ID of the workload group where the SQL Trace event fires.|66|Yes|
|HostName|**nvarchar**|Name of the computer on which the client is running. This data column is populated if the client provides the host name. To determine the host name, use the HOST_NAME function.|8|Yes|
|IntegerData2|**int**|End offset (in bytes) of the statement that is being executed.|55|Yes|
|IsSystem|**int**|Indicates whether the event occurred on a system process or a user process. 1 = system, 0 = user.|60|Yes|
|LineNumber|**int**|Line number of the statement being executed.|5|Yes|
|LoginName|**nvarchar**|Name of the login of the user (either [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] security login or the [!INCLUDE[msCoName](../../includes/msconame-md.md)] Windows login credentials in the form of DOMAIN\username).|11|Yes|
|LoginSid|**image**|Security identification number (SID) of the logged-in user. You can find this information in the sys.server_principals catalog view. Each SID is unique for each login in the server.|41|Yes|
|NestLevel|**int**|Integer representing the data returned by @@NESTLEVEL.|29|Yes|
|NTDomainName|**nvarchar**|Windows domain to which the user belongs.|7|Yes|
|NTUserName|**nvarchar**|Windows user name.|6|Yes|
|ObjectID|**int**|System-assigned ID of the object.|22|Yes|
|ObjectName|**nvarchar**|Name of the object being referenced.|34|Yes|
|ObjectType|**int**|Value representing the type of the object involved in the event. This value corresponds to the type column in the sys.objects catalog view. For values, see [ObjectType Trace Event Column](../../relational-databases/event-classes/objecttype-trace-event-column.md).|28|Yes|

|RequestID|**int**|ID of the request containing the statement.|49|Yes|
|ServerName|**nvarchar**|Name of the instance of [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] being traced.|26|No|
|SessionLoginName|**nvarchar**|Login name of the user who originated the session. For example, if you connect to [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] using Login1 and execute a statement as Login2, SessionLoginName shows Login1 and LoginName shows Login2. This column displays both [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] and Windows logins.|64|Yes|
|SourceDatabaseID|**int**|ID of the database the object exists in.|62|Yes|
|SPID|**int**|ID of the session on which the event occurred.|12|Yes|
