I am a new oracle dba. One of my users has accidentially dropped an entire table with data. What do I do?

What type of backups do you run? What version of Oracle are you running?

If you have an recent export of the database, you can attempt to re-import the dropped table. The following URL provides an example of this situation in Recovery Scenario #8:

I'm using oracle 9i and well I don't know exactly what backups I have. I was wondering if you could give me all the different scenarios that are possible.
