You did not tell us which version of Oracle you are running so I
assume you are using a version for which the FM does not porvide
instructions on how to do this. . .
You cannot drop a datafile once it is attached to a tablespace. All
you can do is resize it as small as possible, say 128k, and forget
about it.
