You still now *EVERYTHING* better do you? Please be so courageous to
address your concerns with Oracle.
Apparently it is necessary to spell it out to you:
EXP/IMP does NOT constitute a BACKUP.
IT NEVER DID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would recommend keep your big mouth shut, until you addressd your concerns with Oracle , or switch to a different product which better suits your needs, or still better: develop the ultimate database yourself.
