php - Retrieving timestamp of MySQL row creation from meta data?

Question

I have been maintaining a MySQL table of rows of data inserted from PHP code for about a year and a half. Really stupid, I know, I didn't include the timestamp for insertion of these rows.

Is there any possible way that I can retrieve the timestamp of creation of these rows through some metadata or some other way? (Of MySQL or PHPMyAdmin or some other possible ways?)

Answer 1

Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do in this case. If MySQL had a secret timestamp field, the general size of tables would increase by 4 bytes per row.
