RE: Working, middle of night

Linda,

that is somewhat difficult...have you ever done a full export? The exportfile contains the tablespace names. Do you have the create scripts of the database? Do they contain the tablespace names?
Otherwise I can't think of a way to find out the tablespace names. The contolfile only contains the datafile names. It is very important to make lists of your database configuration when it is working, so you can re-create it again.
Maybe someone else got an idea?

Regards, Richard Klavers
