List pgsql-sql
I didnt no the thread would become a postgresVSoracle thing. I just lost couple of thousand rows and could not retrieve them back, so i wanted to know if postgres had some way to get it back. Iam just a few days expereinced in postgres hence iam still discovering its features.
No intention of comparing the two technologies......just trying find a solution and ended up comparing because i had worked in oracle before and very well knewit provide a rollback option for queries.
I dont see anything wrong in knowing what features oracle has.
 
Peace

Oracle-base is a site I trust and use.  Tim writes very good articles and this is one he did recently covering flashback in 11g.  The example on flashback transaction is the best I've seen.
