Re: Oracle DBA Studio - TAble Wizard

You can find out if there's a patch by going to Oracle's technical site(s). But there's quite a few things that DBA Studio cannot do when it comes to table creation. Compare the options open to you from the Oracle documentation for CREATE TABLE... with the options open to you in DBA Studio. So - many times you're going to be using a script anyway. And that's not necessarily a bad thing. Scripts are compact, reusable and very portable - even to machines that cannot be reached by DBA Studio.
