Hi Ashoke,
Under 817 you can use dba_dependencies - their may be other ways as well.
For example:
SQL> create table a (a integer);
Table created.
SQL> create table b (b integer);
Table created.
SQL> create view ab as select * from a,b where a=b;
View created.
SQL> select * from dba_dependencies where NAME = 'AB';
OWNER NAME TYPE REFERENCED_OWNER REFERENCED_NAME
REFERENCED_T REFERENCED_LINK DEPE
---------- ---------- ---- ------------------------------ ---------------
------------ --------------- ----
USER000001 AB VIEW USER000001 B
TABLE HARD
USER000001 AB VIEW USER000001 A
TABLE HARD
2 rows selected.
Searching dba_views.text will be a problem if the table names are split over
more than 1 line in the view definition.
Regards,
Bruce Reardon

Greetings,
Is there any dictionary table/view where I can query the name of all the
tables used by a particular view?
The way I do now is : Query the line containing 'from' in text field of
dba_views for the specified view.
Is there any other way to get the list of the tables used by a view?
Thanks,
Ashoke
