RE: export/import object types

Kevin,

Thanks for letting me know that I am not the only one had to go throught this. :) Thank God I have VI editor, can't imagine if I had to use notepad on windows to edit that file. There are 106 types!

Hi all,

I wonder if anyone has seen this before.

I export an user A, then import it into user B in a different database and everything is ok. Then I use the same export file to import into user C in the same database as user B and all the "CREATE TYPE...." failed because Oracle retains the object id in the export file and when importing into user C it tries to create them with the same object id and since user B already has it it failed. I had to manually delete the object id from the log and recreate it.

It's not a huge problem since it's rare that I do something like this. But just wondering why would Oracle retain the object id for TYPE? It certainly didn't keep the same object id for other objects like table, etc.

Any thoughts?
