Just, when it comes to it (at the end of the year), create new tablespace:
CREATE TABLESPACE YEAR_2003_TS DATAFILE '<%ora_home%>\<Oradata>\YEAR_2003.ora' SIZE 2000064K REUSE EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL UNIFORM SIZE 20M ONLINE; specifying your own names and locations, and then add partition, using new tablespace as storage parameter: ALTER TABLE <your_table> ADD PARTITION YEAR_2003 VALUES LESS THAN (to_date('2004', 'yyyy')) TABLESPACE YEAR_2003_TS; Igor Neyman, OCP DBA [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- To: "Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2002 10:33 AM Hi, Thanks for ur answer. Can u please help me in giving the code about how to implement it, i.e. how to write the code specifying the particular tablespace, because as the new financial year will appear, new tablespace will be required. So how it can be managed to put the code in the DDL script so that it assigns the tablespace automatically. Waiting for ur reply.
