How do I check for full tablespaces?

Hi:

I have a database that I used sqlldr to successfully load about 17 million records total (7 M in each of 2 tables), using a script to load about a million at a time. This perl script writes .dat files and when they get to be over a certain size (pic a number) I invoke sqlldr and then truncate the file and keep going through that process. This works up to a point and then I start getting "Non data related sqlldr error". I am guessing I need to add another .dbf file somewhere. It will let me add a record or two at a time with "update table ..." but if I run sqlldr with even 20 records I get this error. What is the best way to check something like this (I'm a n.b. to the DBA aspect of this).

The .dbf files always have the size I allocated since I guess they are cleared or just allocated when I create the database, so how do I tell how much space in the tablespaces actually gets used?

P.S. Oracle 8.0.4.1 (?) on SGI Origin.

Thanks,

        Mike
