John, I agree with you for a full export, and (I have just checked) a OWNER=SYS export exports everything but tables. But there is no such limitation with a TABLES= export : [oriole@frlinux1 oriole]$ exp system/xxx tables=sys.obj$ Export: Release 8.1.7.0.1 - Production on Sat Dec 22 09:06:03 2001 (c) Copyright 2000 Oracle Corporation.

Current user changed to SYS . . exporting table OBJ$ 3016 rows exported Export terminated successfully without warnings so CTAS is not the ONLY option. -- Regards, Stephane Faroult Oriole Ltd -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Stephane Faroult INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists -------------------------------------------------------------------- To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
