Hello,
Or it could be done by deallocation of the unused space. From Oracle manual (Release 8.0)...
"ALTER TABLE table DEALLOCATE UNUSED KEEP integer;
When you explicitly identify an amount of unused space to KEEP, this space is retained while the remaining unused space is deallocated. If the remaining number of extents becomes smaller than MINEXTENTS, the MINEXTENTS value changes to reflect the new number. If the initial extent becomes smaller, the INITIAL value changes to reflect the new size of the initial extent."
Hth,
Erika
