[Quoted] Hi Antony,

[Quoted] an Oracle database is no toy, you have learn something about the [Quoted] concept of Oracle:

physical structure:
- a tablespace consists of one or more data files

logical structure:

- data is always in an extent
- contigous extents are called a segment
- extents reside in an tablespace
- space for storing data (rows) in a table is allocated in extents
[Quoted] - at creation time of a tablespace you say what is the default extent

size for data allocated
[Quoted] - you can specify initial extent size, next extent size and optionally [Quoted] the percentage, how the extent size is increased every time an extent has to be allocated
[Quoted] - if you don't specify storage parameters for a table, the defaults from tablespace are used
[Quoted] - if no tablespace for table is specified, the default tablespace for the user creating the table is used
[Quoted] - at creation time of database you have to specify system tablespace, - later you can (and should) create some tablespaces for data, index, [Quoted] rollback segments ans os on.

there's much more, I don't know where to stop
