Yes, I know about this, thanks all the same, but in a huge database, 
which this one isn't, imaging the result of materiali[zs]ing all those 
empty tables again. The point of the deferred segment creation is to 
save space - which it does, admirably - seems a shame to have to undo 
all that good work when we need to downgrade/migrate it to a Standard 
Edition database.


Cheers,
Norm.
