Thanks Dennis, The rollback segments occurred to me already, I'm composing the email to our SAs to restore the files (I'm going to have to wipe out another test box but it's one that can easily be recreated).
Thanks!

Archive and redo logs, of course. Other than that, I think you are off to a promising start. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- Sent: Monday, September 09, 2002 5:04 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Urgen We need to recover a table that had been truncated. Unfortunately at this time we don't have a server large enough to copy our complete backup (I know, I've been yelling about this for over a year). Can we copy just the tablespaces holding the SYS objects and the table we need, modify our create controlfile script (backed up to trace) and open it that way? I've never tried this before and it's rather urgent so I'm e-mailing while I'm still searching the Velpuri book. Any other suggestions are welcome.
