Just a question off the wall here - kind of related: Does anybody know why Oracle does NOT give the option to have a DEFAULT INDEX TABLESPACE along with TEMPORARY and DEFAULT (for Tables for example).. I know, I know it's just another thing to add to your syntax - but it would be a FAR better way

sangeetha, 1) If a tablespace is deleted all of the tables, indexes or rollback segments that reside in that tablespace will also be deleted. Users are not stored in a tablespace, except in the SYSTEM tablespace - which you DON'T want to delete as it is the tablespace that runs the Oracle system.
