hi,

i am new to this thread (server utilities ). I have one problem on exporting and importing tables of the same user workspace same password.

For example.

In home and office in both places i am using one userid and same password.

In home i create 4 tables populated with 20 rows on each.

using imp/exp i import the same dmp at office and add another 10 rows for each table

now i take dump and take it to home.

in house if i use imp add rows are not updating in my house tables. I need to drop all the tables and then importing gets accommadating all the 30 rows.

This is one problem.

Another problem if add another table add some rows to existing table imports make me to add another table with full rows where as add rows in existing tables are getting imported.

Everytime I have to drop all the tables and importing. What sort of the mistake i am doing? The same question i have raised in some other fourm and did not get reply. Hence I am refining my request with examples to this forum.

can any one help me

yours
dr.s.raghuathan

Import utility does NOT update records; it INSERTS them.

You don't have to drop tables; use IGNORE=Y option when importing data - it will skip CREATE TABLE errors and insert records. If there are primary / unique key constraints, import will skip such a records (and log when/if they fail).

@littlefoot,

thank you very much. i have to check at home and i am adding few more rows to existing table and taken new dmp for export. is it possible to import one or two tables and one or two procedures alone. if so how.

since when i modify some of the procedure through object browser is not reflecting after import. hence i use to create another procedure by suffixing numerals for existing one and doing export and import work.

once again thank you very much for the guidance
yours

Yes, using the TABLES option.

No, as far as I can tell (at least, not in 10g or lower versions). If you have a couple of procedures, perhaps you'd easier simply recreate them in target database (just as you'd move DMP file on a USB stick, you'd move SQL files). Or, you could import with ROWS=N and use LOG option, open log file and extract CREATE PROCEDURE statements and run them separately through SQL*Plus (or TOAD or SQL Developer or ...).

10g's Original Export and Import documentation is available at OTN (as usually).
