Query to recover accidentally deleted data
Hi All, Please help me with the below mentioned scenario-> Scenario-> My Collegaue has accidentally deleted 10000 of records from a table named as X(id int,name varchar(20),sal int) Now is there any way by which I can recover the already deleted and commited data on same day and also would like to know whether same can be recovered after few days of passing by. Immediate response would be much appreciated. Regards, Innovator.
You can only retrieve the data if you have backups for the database. If the data had been static for awhile, you should be able to get it from the previous full or differential backup. If the data changes frequently, you'll need to get it from the transaction log backups so you can get it as it was just before the problem query was run.
There's a way to do that using third party tool such as ApexSQL Log. Recovering deleted or updated rows can be done with use of t-log but you can also sellect what data you want to recover. Tool is filled with a filters to help you narrow the search for data you want to recover. We are using Log for 2 years now, and in few occasions it's been a real painkiller.

That wouldn't work if the database is in SIMPLE recovery mode.
I disagree. SIMPLE recovery is fine for important data, as long as either the data doesn't change, or can be rebuilt easily, or the business is happy with the more restrictive recovery points.
By default I change Model to be SIMPLE so that new databases dont get created without me knowing and cause me log file issues when the log file is not managed properly.

I believe database snapshots would be what you need for this type of situation.
a little overkill to keep a snapshot for this situation. Remember: the snapshot will need space (up to the size of the database) and it will slow down your performance because it has to move the original block if it's modified
There is an article where you can find a detailed step by step tutorial with what you have to do in order to recover your data. You will need access to your backups, but this is the best way to recover specific records. This is the article:

I suspect, after seven years, he's sorted it out already... or found a new job. In a new field.
