Hi, A table within one of our readonly tablespaces was dropped. I can see the table has been "renamed" to a numeric value and still exists in DBA_SEGMENTS, but it's definition has been dropped from the dictionary. Is there any way that we can recover this data from this temporary segment back into the table? Many thanks, Steve. 9.2.0.5.0 Solaris 64 bit ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Information in this email may be privileged, confidential and is intended exclusively for the addressee.
