My guess would be so that all of those exp scripts out there floating
around don't bomb off with "invalid parameter" error but just ignore it
and keep on running.  No need to apologize, i rarely post except usually
to be a smart ass but when i do post, i've already gone thru the procedure
of proving the point so i dont look like a doofus posting errors :)

 Joe,

 Thank you. It's always nice to see someone take the time to prove what
 they say. My apologies for missing this on the list earlier.

 It's curious...why would Oracle keep the parameter in exp and then tell
 you it is obsolete and it will be ignored? I'm sure they  have a good
 reason, it just does not make much sense to this ol' dba...

 EXP-00041: INCTYPE parameter is obsolete



 00041, 00000, "INCTYPE parameter is obsolete"
 // *Cause:  Export encountered the INCTYPE parameter when parsing
