I love the statement "the last re-org that the db will need for space mangement reasons". But why, exactly, is this? My DBA is still creating new databases (8.1.7) with dictionary managed tablespaces, and I want to persuade him otherwise (he likes having tables and indexes in seperate tablespaces too). Maybe it's because we are still using Designer v1.3.2, which only supports 7.3, but I don't really know - I am barely on speaking terms with him at the moment.
