The query proposed by Anthony Hsu assumes that the tablespace has an 8K block size. Instead use the query below. Of course the result will be in bytes, not gigabytes, but any good DBA can instantly convert bytes to gigabytes or terabytes at a glance. :) P.S. I include LOB indexes in the table

At what step ? Oracle reads blocks, so from the datafile up to the db_buffer/db_cache its blocks. It would be logical that the filtering occurs after the where clause has chosen the data matching the search criteria, so in the select step which is the last step of the query operation. Stephane

SarbOx ( Sarbanes Oxley) will change this behavior. Users and developers will be more limited. There should be a way to limit DBA's and sysadmins as well. Data encryption at the db level is the only way I can think of to prevent that, short of locking out the admins. Jared Jay
