I ran it. No problem. (Windows 2000 / Oracle 9i) Thanks for all.
More information : The problem, four datafile contains corrupt block. (two indexes and two tables). One table I used the package DBMS_REPAIR and made a export, with DIRECT=Y (without it an error happened) and them I imported this table. I lost only 8 rows with this procedure. For the other table I will make the same. About the index, I will recreate it. My online backup is corrupted too. -- Breno A. K.
