Hi everyone,

I have a project due in about an hour... one of the questions I have to
answer is determining the physical size of the database. It's an
Oracle 10 database. Actually, it's a small datawarehouse with 5 tables
of raw data. I only have a SQL Plus interface, so some commands don't
work. I can't find a query to get me the physical size anywhere on the
net. If you have any ideas or input, PLEASE send me an email or
respond to this post. I would greatly appreciate it. I hope someone
is out there.

Regards,

Rich

With advice, you can have it good, fast or free. Pick any two, plz.

Which commands do not work in SQL*Plus?

The lack of planning on your part does not necessarily constitute an
emergency on my part,

SQL> DESC DBA_DATA_FILES
SQL> DESC DBA_TEMP_FILES

I understand, and I appreciate your input. However, your query didn't
work. Here's the response I got...

ERROR:
ORA-04043: object "SYS"."DBA_DATA_FILES" does not exist

Any ideas?

I'm sorry, but I don't understand what I'm supposed to choose, and I
also don't have time for games. Thank you for your first suggestion.
