I have an input page in my C# application whereby my boss can enter sales info.
This page also has a clear button, which clears the contents of the table in the database. This clear button was convenient for testing, however now in hindsight a mistake.
All the records in the table have been deleted. There are no backups either.
Long shot, but is there any way of recovering this data using only SQL Server 2008?
If you still have the transaction logs, there are some tools, but these will cost some …

Edit : Looks like Redgate is SQL 2000 only. Which leaves Apex. And if your clear function uses TRUNCATE, you are up the creek.
