All my scripts are there.
Some day, when I have time, i’ll fix the broken links…

I was just mentioning the link of this page for one of the question at OTN forum :
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2230456&tstart=0
where OP is asking the last DML in 9i. I just clicked the http://www.tanelpoder.com/files/scripts/lastchanged.sql link, but it is not opening. Can you please paste the code of script; so that :
1.I may point that OTN OP to this page.
2.If any time due to any reason, the link for SQL is not working; visitor may get it from here itself.
3.I am not sure, you have incorporated 9i’s limitation for this i.e. in 9i there is no ORA_ROWSCN; don’t know how earlier DBAs i.e. prior to 9i (early 1990s); have managed this answer though!

My name is Achal Kumar and i work as Oracle DBA.

I am trying to use your query and i am getting these below errors. I am trying to find out: When the Table was Updated / Modified:

Below is the error that i am getting, Please help me out.

SQL> @lastchange.sql obj$ name=’IM_CONFIGURATION’

– LastChanged.sql v1.0 by Tanel Poder ( http://www.tanelpoder.com )

Running this query:

. select MAX(ora_rowscn)
. from obj$
. where name=’IM_CONFIGURATION’;

SP2-0310: unable to open file “saveset.sql”
old 4: FROM &1
new 4: FROM obj$
old 5: WHERE &2;
new 5: WHERE name=’IM_CONFIGURATION’;

old 11: FROM &1
new 11: FROM obj$
old 12: WHERE &2
new 12: WHERE name=’IM_CONFIGURATION’
old 96: &runme WHERE 1=0
new 96: WHERE 1=0
old 1: SELECT COUNT(*)||’ rows analyzed.’ FROM &1 WHERE &2
new 1: SELECT COUNT(*)||’ rows analyzed.’ FROM obj$ WHERE name=’IM_CONFIGURATION’

2 rows analyzed.

lastchanged.sql always requires two parameters, table name and the rows to be examined. When you use 1=1 then all rows are examined and you get the latest time of any row changed in the table.

But instead of 1=1 you can use where ID=xyz or whatever other condition, in this case the script reports when was a last change done to any of the rows matching the where condition..

If you look into script header, there are use cases and explanation in there…

Yes, ORA_ROWSCN is not available in 9i.In 9i auditing and table monitoring are the 2 possible ways of getting the last dml as far as i know.

Secondly, suppose that i want don’t want to use in
@laschanged scott.emp then should i use 1=1 in

like ,
@lastchanged scott.emp 1=1
