records updated

  • I took backup of the database and restored in some other location say mirror database.

    In the mirror database, I add some constraints by eliminating duplicates and foreign key constraints.

    In the meantime some data would have been updated or inserted inside the original database.

    How to identify the updated or inserted records without using triggeres. I am also not allowed to add timestamp column to the structure.

    pls help me to solve this.

    thanks in advance

    there is possibilities of retriving data which are newly inserted in original database by comparing it with mirror database but it is hard to retrive data which are updated....
