Michael - I've done it both ways, and yes, it depends on how AR you wish to be. You can convert everything to K and get pretty precise. Or you can simply create the tablespace and datafile, then query the free space and create your table accordingly. Of course LMT with uniform extents changes the rules a bit, especially for us AR types. Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Do most interchange the values 1000K for 1M or 1000M for 1G? I try to be precise in my usage, but I guess that's just the AR size of my personality. OK, I'll go find my pills now. ;) By the way, we use a maximum size of 4Gb+8k file size but, I've never has a reason to doubt the DEC/Compaq 64bit file systems.
