We had a TOAD problem when a developer using TOAD truncated an important table 
in Dev.  We subsequently found out that that functionality can be disabled in a 
config file.

What difference does it make?  If they don't have the rights to delete the
object in Oracle, they can click delete all they want, nothing will happen.
The question you should be asking is why do they want it?  Database security
( Oracle or otherwise ) should always be set in the database itself, not
some tool.

Hi all,
  My developers (who currently just use SQL Plus) now are wanting to use 
Quest TOAD. From what I've used it in the past, it is far too powerful for 
developers. (I don't trust my developers with creating tablespaces, etc.). 
Plus, I've found that TOAD is far too easy to delete objects, etc.
  Any recommendations, etc would greatly be appreciated!
