Export bigger then 2G with Oracle7.3.4

Hi DBAs,

Because of some requirements from one of our vendor, we still have a database running Oracle7.3.4 on WindowsNT and since this package is no longer used, so we
want to export the content of this database. The database is around 60G, one table is 55G. So a simple export on release 7 will crash when I will get 2G of dump file.

The export utility for release 7 doesn't allow us to create multiple files, but the export utility for release 8 does. I know that they recommend to always use the lower version of export, but is there a way to use export 8i and create multiple files on a Oracle7.3.4 database?

If not, what can I do?

Thanks
Luc
