Unfortunately, there are 85 blocks in that datafile. 

SQL> select * from dba_extents
  2  where file_id=48 and extent_id=225;

OWNER           SEGMENT_NAME         PARTITION_NAME
--------------- -------------------- ------------------------------
SEGMENT_TYPE       TABLESPACE_NAME                 EXTENT_ID    FILE_ID
------------------ ------------------------------ ---------- ----------
  BLOCK_ID      BYTES     BLOCKS RELATIVE_FNO
---------- ---------- ---------- ------------
LAWSON          POLINE
TABLE              LAWDATA01                             225         48
         2     348160         85           48


What would be the best way to get around this situation? We do not
have the archive log required to recover that datafile.

Thanks...
