A guy from an external company came here this morning to install the new
version of their software. He asked me to create a new user and a new
tablespace for the new app version and I did it. Then he asked me to
load a dump file containings all the app database objects. I did it but
I noticed that all objects were created in the tablespace USERS. I asked
him if he had an object creation script instead of a dump file and he
said no. So I had to extract the object creation script using imp,
replace all occourences of tablespace "USERS" with the name of the brand
new app tablespace and run the script vith SQL*Plus (there were no
meaningful data in the dump file; he just needed the empty objects).
I was a very awful job, so I'm wondering if there is an easier way to
force imp to import objects in a different tablespace than the one
buried into the dump file. In my case, the preferred target tablespace
was also the user's default tablespace.

Microsoft? Is that some kind of toilet paper?
