Tables within SQL Database

July 7th, 2007, 4:11

is there a tool that one can use to recover tables that have been deleted on a database inside an sql database file?

i had a client ask me if its possible and am not sure

Has the user ever made a full, incremental or differential backup; and have they kept the logs? Maybe possible to replay partials logs against a previous backup.

It very much depends on the physical file layout on the disk, if recovery is possible; as it won't just be a single table that is affected by a "DROP TABLE XYZ" command. There's all the system objects and stuff.
