OK, eTravels,
Firstly, do you have backups of the files that you deleted?
Secondly, is your database in ARCHIVELOG mode? i.e. what does the following return:
SELECT LOG_MODE FROM V$DATABASE; Thirdly, do you have a competent Oracle DBA to hand? I'm not being funny but it *will* help.
Finally, it might not be an emergency to you, IANAL_VISTA, but it's still nice to see you found the time to "contribute" regardless. Received on Tue Oct 04 2005 - 10:05:26 CDT
