Joan,

  1. because I've not had any problems using a permanent tablespace
  2. I'm an old timer set in my ways
  3. my sa is against it for disk fragmentation reasons
  4. my boss see's no reason to change something that is working without a problem.

In general, "if it ain't Baroque don't fix it".

Dick,

Just wondering why not just convert it to temp tablespace?
