Do you have an export dump?

I think you want to export a specified partition in a partitioned table. is it correct?

if you are using 10g it is possible using impdp utility.

in that there is a parameter QUERY.

in that give the select statement to select only the partition you want.

In a partition-level import you can specify the specific partitions of an exported table that you want to import. In this example, these are p1 and p3 of table emp:

> imp scott/tiger TABLES=(emp:p1,emp:p3) FILE=exmpexp.dat ROWS=y

THanks Mahesh
I tested the purpose of query.
It's for getting a subset of a table.
