RE: How to resize the data files

Show us the SQL and the error message.

Is the tablespace dictionary managed?

I tried that but the problem is it is giving error that table that is 
partitioned can't be moved and all the partitions of this table are already on 
the other tablespaces. If i can somehow move this reference of this table from 
this tablespace i can use the move option on all other tables in this 
tablespace or expdp/impdp to reset the HWM and shrink the files.

It wasn't clear whether or not you've reclaimed space within the tablespaces by 
shrinking their objects.  If you've done that and have pockets of free space 
within each tablespace, one option is to move all objects to another 
tablespace, then back again.  This will remove the "fragmentation", lowering 
your HWM.

You can view each database's HWM by a query similar to the following:

DEFINE TABLESPACE_NAME='%';

COLUMN file_name FORMAT A50 HEADING 'File Name' JUSTIFY CENTER COLUMN 
segment_name FORMAT A30 HEADING 'Segment Name' JUSTIFY CENTER COLUMN hwm_mb 
FORMAT 999,999 HEADING 'File|HWM(MB)' JUSTIFY CENTER COLUMN alloc_mb FORMAT 
999,999 HEADING 'File|Size(MB)' JUSTIFY CENTER COLUMN tablespace_name NOPRINT

SELECT ddf.tablespace_name,
       ddf.file_name,
       a.segment_name, 
       a.partition_name,
       CEIL((((a.block_id - 1) + a.blocks) * a.db_block_size) / 1048576) 
hwm_mb, 
       CEIL((ddf.blocks * a.db_block_size) / 1048576) alloc_mb
  FROM (SELECT file_id
             , block_id
             , blocks
             , segment_name
             , owner
             , partition_name
             , RANK() OVER (PARTITION BY file_id ORDER BY block_id desc)
rank1
             , (SELECT value FROM v$parameter WHERE name =
'db_block_size') db_block_size
          FROM cdba_extents
         WHERE tablespace_name LIKE '&TABLESPACE_NAME') a
     , dba_data_files ddf
 WHERE a.rank1 = 1
   AND a.file_id = ddf.file_id
 ORDER BY ddf.tablespace_name, ddf.file_name;

COLUMN tablespace_name PRINT

"cdba_extents" is a custom version of DBA_EXTENTS that gets past performance 
issues under 9i with LMTs.
