This is another way, although you don't get it in your required format:
 
 select 'select count(1) '||table_name|| ' from ' || table_name ||';' from
user_tables;

Hi Lee,
 
Here's how you can do it in PL/SQL. It can easily be converted to SQL if
realy realy want it :).
 
set serveroutput on size 1000000
declare
 cursor c is select table_name from user_tables;
 rec        c%rowtype;
begin
  open c;
  fetch c into rec;
 
  dbms_output.put_line('select ');
  dbms_output.put_line( 'select '||''''||rec.table_name||''''||' table_name'
                      ||',count(*) from '||rec.table_name
                      );
  fetch c into rec;
 
  while c%found 
  loop
    dbms_output.put_line( 'union all '||chr(10)
                        ||'select '||''''||rec.table_name||''''
                        ||',count(*) from '||rec.table_name
                        );
    fetch c into rec;
  end loop;
 
  dbms_output.put_line(';');
end;

All,
 
Anyone know how to get a list of tablenames and the count of rows in them

LEE1                       25
LEE2                      17................etc etc
 
I know it can be done if the tables are analyzed and from user_tables but
