Srinivasa,

I am assuming that the rest of the current database needs to be kept, that
you only need to recover the one table form the prioir weeks backup.

This is what you need to do:

1). Take a new cold backup of the current database - shut it down, and back
it up to tape.

2). Restore the old backup from tape - restore everything.
    Start the database.
    Perform an Oracle Export of the one table that was dropped.
    Shut the database down.
3). Restore the database from step one.
    Start the database
    Import the table from step 2.

Go have a beer.

Hope this helps.

Subject: Recover a table from cold backup-noarchivelog


Hi, I have a database running in noarchivelog mode.
 
 
Scenario:
------------
I have a test database running in noarchivelog mode. Database is 8i. Cold
backup is performed weekly. It is a filecopy, NOT RMAN backup. Just all
datafiles, control files, init files are copied to backup location. Users
dropped a table and wanted it to be recovered as of the last cold backup.
Can someone please help me with this process. 
 
thanks in advance.
Srinivas
