And if your looking for when they first started creating objects, look
in DBA_OBJECTS.

                What Brandon posted is probably the best you can do, at
least without some sort of audit trail, which, if you're asking the
question after the fact, is probably not available.

                 

                However, it's really not sufficient.

                 

                I could create object A today, object B tomorrow, and
drop object A the day after tomorrow.  Then, Brandon's query will return
yesterday's date, rather than the day before yesterday.

                 

                There's no good, obvious way around this, that I can
see.  I'm just pointing out a possible weakness in the strategy.

                Try this:

                 

                select min(created) from dba_objects where owner =
