RE: why these tables can not be seen from user_segments?Wrong, dba_tables, all_tables, and user_tables do not include views. Views listed in dba_views, ...
ex.:
SQLWKS> select table_name from dba_tables where table_name like 'PRCPV%';

TABLE_NAME


0 rows selected.

SQLWKS> select view_name from dba_views where view_name like 'PRCPV%';

VIEW_NAME


PRCPV_CHART_MENU_INFO PRCPV_LANGUAGE PRCPV_MENU_INFO PRCPV_MESSAGE_TEXT PRCPV_RELATIONSHIP_LAYOUT PRCPV_REPORT_INFO PRCPV_REPORT_MENU_INFO 7 rows selected.

  Hi,

  I found this out the hard way to: dba_tables, all_tables, and user_tables also include views. Of course, views don't have segments.....
