Hello,

Oracle 8.1.6 on HP-UX 11.0

WFM_ADMIN_at_VGRAFO> select num_rows,last_analyzed,monitoring from user_tables where table_name = 'NOTES_LOG';

NUM_ROWS LAST_ANAL MON

---------------- ------- 1585697 14-MAY-02 YES

Last night, Informatica inserted rows into this table.

1 select inserts,updates,deletes from dba_tab_modifications 2* where table_name = 'NOTES_LOG'
WFM_ADMIN_at_VGRAFO> / INSERTS UPDATES DELETES

-------------- --------------- 6509 0 0

WFM_ADMIN_at_VGRAFO> select count(*) from notes_log;

COUNT(*)

1592488

The difference between yesterday's and today's count is 6791 which does not match the number in dba_tab_modifications.

Does this mean that I cannot rely on dba_tab_modifications?

TIA
Prakash
