You can use Oracle's auditing facility. Look at this example:

SQL> conn / as sysdba
Connected.

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET set audit_trail=db SCOPE=spfile;
System altered.

SQL> STARTUP FORCE;
ORACLE instance started.
Total System Global Area  289406976 bytes
Fixed Size                  1301536 bytes
Variable Size             262677472 bytes
Database Buffers           25165824 bytes
Redo Buffers                 262144 bytes
Database mounted.
Database opened.

SQL> AUDIT TABLE;
Audit succeeded.

SQL> conn scott/tiger
Connected.

SQL> CREATE TABLE tab1 (col1 DATE);
Table created.

SQL> SELECT os_username, username, userhost, terminal, owner, obj_name, action_name
  2  FROM   user_audit_trail;
OS_USERNAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
USERNAME
------------------------------
USERHOST
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TERMINAL
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OWNER
------------------------------
OBJ_NAME
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ACTION_NAME
----------------------------
oracle
SCOTT
LANfear
pts/14
SCOTT
TAB1
CREATE TABLE

Best regards.

Thanks Frank,
But i want to know what is my old value and which field is changed from which value to which value.
In trigger, we can take old values and new values.
Without using triggers how can we find the old values and new values ?

Thanks,
Sugan
