How to get modified time of a table

[Muthu]

Hello All,

I would like to get last modified timestamp for a table. Is there any way to
get that information using any commands?

Thanks in Advance,
Muthu.

No, there is no built-in support for this. You could have to add
a modified_date column to the table, and then use a trigger to ensure
that it's updated accordingly.

Before you send your boss to jail, you might want to look at SOX rules
for audits. Then look at third party tools for such things.
