that's not a bad idea. I'll suggest that to my team. Someone else sent an email to me suggesting auditing, but I think that's overkill for the scope of what we want to do. We want to see which tables haven't been accessed in a while to see if they can be cleaned up. Thanks!

Hi, you could try to select * from v$sql where lower(sql_text) like '%table_name%' The column LAST_LOAD_TIME will tell you when the statement has been stated.

It's something that needs to be figured out for my work and I wanted to know if anyone has a way to figure this out. If impossible or an incredible stretch just let me know! Thanks! Jeremy
