U r right ..I still dunno 'much' about perl.. as for dbms_metadata it is a built in pl/sql package saying 'select dbms_metadata.get_ddl(object_type,object_name,schema_name) from dual; gives the entire ddl creation script. However, 'interestingly' execute dbms_metadata.get_ddl does not work as well! More interestingly metalink does not have much on it either.. I guess it works too well!!!! Thanks Cyril
