Roland, If the table is already established and you want the next extents to be in a different datafile then you can force that situation. Onca a table was been created in a perticular tablespace I don't know of a way to split the table across multiple tablespaces other that partitioning.
To force the table to use another datafile you have to add the additional datafile and then resize the original datafile to a minimal size and the next extent will be in the additional datafile. You could also look into ALTER TABLE foobar ALLOCATE_EXTENT clause.
