I knew I was going to get that response.  It is not "my" database.  I am fixing 
issues on why scripts will not run.  We support 1000+ databases worldwide, so 
yes control is an issue.
 
thanks.

Joe,
 
    If memory is serving correctly there is no way to find out who created the 
table.  The data dictionary only has information on the current owner and the 
object's name.  By passing out the "create any table" system privilege you've 
lost control of who actually did it unless you have auditing turned on.  In my 
databases no one other than DBA's have any of the "any" privileges.

oracle-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx: who created the table?

How do I determine which user actually created a table?
 
I have a table named ???? under schema A.  I have numerous schemas/users that 
have CREATE ANY TABLE system privilege.  I have the OBJECT_ID of the table.
 
How do I join USER$, TAB$,  and so on to find the actual user that created the 
table?
 
Thanks.
