Bill,

You can use Logminer to help you, but it's a long road to travel.

If you really have a requirement that you need to know when a row was inserted or updated, then you'll need to include another column in your table with the timestamp. You can then use a trigger to update the timestamp on INSERT or UPDATE.

HTH,
Brian
