If the tables are pre-created an the_other_tablespace, no problem. If the user you import to does not have the right to create tablespaces, nor does that user have unlimited tablespace rights (which grant defaulted with the resource role since 8i), the tables will go into the users default tablespace.

I would precreate the tablespaces, though. A simple imp system/manager indexfile=showme.txt is enough to see all create tables statement and tablespaces.

This does *not* import any data - it just creates a file with create table, and create index statements. A remnant from the time indexes "should be imported separately" (V5) ?
