Sean,
Importing with INDEXFILE will show TABLE create statements as well as INDEX
create statements but will not show TABLESPACE create statements.
To get the tablespace create statements (this will not be a pretty output
file!):
imp userid=<userid/password> file=<file> log=show.log show=y rows=n
full=y
this will generate a file called show.log that will contain ALL DDL
statements for that database. At the beginning of the file, you should see
the create tablespace commands.
You will need to edit these commands to make them runnable, Oracle chops the
line off at (I think) 80 characters and then wraps to the next line.
Everything will be enclosed in double quotes as well.
