Please tell us how to get all table names from .dmp file. So that I can write only those tables in import statment.
Is there any way to get all the tables from .dmp file?

From .dmp! No. It's a binary one.

You can have a try by" cat filename "to see whether name appears there or not. Better check Export log file if you have.

I'd do the following:
strings unknown.dmp | grep "CREATE TABLE "
& the output will get you close to what you want

Who knows what his .dmp file holds?
Here is the test.You can have get if you make a dump by exp/imp. But if you have dump file(export by expdp/impdp) then you can't have it.
SQL> host expdp system/arju directory=dexport 
dumpfile=testforsearch.dmp schemas=arju

Arju,

Thank you for the update.
