is there any reason why wildcard filtering('_') does not work for some tables? i copied a set of tables from a book.surprisingly this '_' wildcard filtering is not working only for those tables i have copied.it is working with other tables which i have created.
is there any reason for this?

Try double quoting it.
create table _EMP (col1 number);
ORA-00911: invalid character
create table "_EMP" (col1 number);
Table created
drop table "_emp";
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
drop table "_EMP";
Table dropped
