Capturing SQL code that generates error

I have an application that imports application data based on the Windows Installer .MSI schema into a SQL database. If it possible that the data in the tables exceeds the size allowed in our database. When that happens, an error message is generated. This
is fine as the user has the option to 'Ignore.'
The problem is that I cannot tell what application is being imported when the error message is produced. Is there a method to capturing the 'parent' SQL insert statements so that I can get the application name?
Thanks
Have you considered using Profiler? Let us know if you need help with using
Profiler to capture the statement and the error.

Thanks for the reply. I have tried the Profiler, but I am not getting the data I need. I'm probably not capturing the correct information. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

I got it - thank you for the Profiler suggestion. I went back into the tool and added the TSQL events.
