Hi everybody,

I'm having a problem truncating tables in an LMT.  The space is not deallocated when 
you truncate which appears to be a well documented problem on metalink.  I can get 
around it with alter table ... deallocate unused keep 1k;

The problem I have is that the index space isn't deallocated, so when I repopulate the 
table, the index then takes up twice as much space as it should.  The only way to fix 
it that i've found it to do a rebuild of the index and specify a small initial extent 
size.

Is there an easier to get the indexes to deallocate space?  I don't want to have to 
know the name of each and every index to truncate and repopulate a table.

Thanks much,

Beth
