fantastic, thankyou very much for your prompt responses

we're getting there :) i must have strange version of awk !! that command deletes the lines containing '5' in position '17' but the next line(s) are simply moved to the end of the file rather than deleted !!??

the awk you suggested to delete the lines with "5" in character position 17 from the original file results in: awk: syntax error near line 1 awk: bailing out near line 1 sorry, i have no experience of using awk, any suggestions ? thankyou

thats fantastic, the substr works a treat, thankyou. how would i then go about deleting those lines identified by that awk from the original file ? many thanks, you're a star

thankyou for the quick response Feherke, I've tried awk '$17=="5"{print;getline;print}' inputfile >outputfile but the outfile is empty, am i being really silly and missing something obvious ??!! thankyou

Mike, Dima, I have tables with many extents, most under 10 extents the rest are between 25 - 100 extents. It's been recommended we defrag when a table reaches >5 extents. Thanks

Hi I need to 'defrag' some tables and wonder if the following method is the best way: 1. export table(s) 2. drop table 'tablename' cascade constraints 3. Import table(s) It's mainly the drop command I'm unsure about. Thanks

>Jad Thanks very much for your reply, I'm going to tweek the second script and that should sort me out. Cheers and by the way, I did spend some time using the keyword search but couldn't find anything :( Posting a new thread was the last resort.
