User Hari creates a table t1, inserts data into it.
Now internal issues the command
alter system switch logfile;
Hari then drops this table.
Later Hari discovers he wants this table back. How does he go about retrieving the table?
Does 'recover database until time......' do the trick?

If your logs have not cycled through and overwritten the data you can. You would restore your data file, not your logs and it will roll forward to a point in time. Good reason to archive your logs.

You can also use logminer.
