Subject: Re: WHO DID IT?
If the database hasn't been bounced, see if any suspicious (DELETE or TRUNCATE) statements can be found in V$SQLAREA (look at sql_text). Then join parsing_user_id to user# in sys.user$ to find the username. If the DB has been bounced, and you don't have auditing on, I don't know of any other way to do this.

a production database has misteriously lost all of its data...I can
re-create it
from backup but before I do I'd like to find out who was the last person to
access certain tables in order to find out who truncated everything...does
anyone have a method to find the culprit?
thanks in advance...
super-sluth...:)
