Re: How to find the view modified date and time and user name

Hi Tom,
I do not have DDL logs.
Are you saying that I should have manually maintain it or are you referring to any existing logs on the database side?
This is taken very seriously by our architect. This guy behaves like everything like auditor, Project Manager or whatever we can think of. 🙂
Thanks,
Sarwar

I'm not finding that argument terribly convincing. If you have a
DDL log file, you can grep it to find the last change (and the
ones before that, in case it was Alice's fault not Bob's). If
you don't have such a log file, how much does a last-changed
timestamp really help you?
