- I don't have any formatter for you.
-
- There is an INDEXES=file (can't remember the exact name) parameter for IMPORT
- which pulls out the TABLE and INDEX definitions to a flat file automatically.
- It is mentioned in the V5 to V6 upgrade documentation because you had to check
- that INDEX names were unique across all objects for each user. If you can get
- that working then you need only add the TABLESPACE component.
-
- You but you might consider creating a script of CREATE INDEX statements
- directly from the INDEX definitions in the database.
