Ashoke, Any programer worth their salt should know what tables or objects are modified by their applications. They documented and wrote it and should know what happens when an "update, delete, insert, etc" happens to the data. If they do not know what happens, How did they write the application?. If it is an inherited application and the documentation is not available, that is a different story. Then you will have to use auditing or the "trigger to table" method.
I know that I sound harsh in my statements but in the old school that's how we had to work, documentation, test, documentation.... I have found in today's programming world that to many times it is easier to cut and paste code to get the project running and not even do the documentation. PS( I retired from an ISO9001/2 company) ROR m���m >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 07/23/02 02:33PM >>> none of them will capture DML changes you have two choices: 1) turn on auditing... this will tell you at a macro level what has been touched, but won't necessarily tell you who did it or if it was done by the execution of his app 2) add an update_dt and an updated_by column to all tables and create a trigger which fires on insert/update/delete to fill the column of the row with sysdate and the userid of the user. This is very detailed, down to the row level but may also not give you whether or not the change was made during the execution of his application --- "Mandal, Ashoke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > One of my developer wants to know what are the tables or any other > objects being modified during the execution of his application. > > dba_objects have following 3 date fields.
