Hi,

If you are on a UNIX system an get enough space for a compressed export
file,
try this :

    1. EXPORT
        nod my_pipe p
        compress < my_pipe > export_file.Z &
        exp userid/passwd file=my_pipe ...........

    2. IMPORT
        mknod my_pipe p
        uncompress < export_file.Z > my_pipe &
        imp userid/passwd file=my_pipe ...........

HTH
Eric
