compress=y means all the extents will be compressed into a single extent. It has nothing to do
with compressing .dmp file.

hi list,

what is the exact use of mentioning 'compress' yes or no while exporting....will this store the .dmp file in compressed format in system,if given 'yes'.

while importing the dumpfile why is it necessary to give 'fromuser',is 'touser' not enough.
