SQL Server Profiler - Replay Configuration (Basic Replay Options)
In the Replay Configuration dialog box, use the Basic Replay Options page to specify how to replay a trace file or table.
To view this window, use SQL Server Profiler to open a trace file or table that contains the appropriate events for replay. For more information, see Replay Requirements. While the trace file or table is open, on the Replay menu, click Start, and then connect to the instance of SQL Server where you want to replay the trace.
