Tim,
SQL> select TABLESPACE_NAME, INITIAL_EXTENT/1024,
NEXT_EXTENT/1024, PCT_INCREASE
2 from dba_tablespaces
3 where tablespace_name like 'TEMP%'
4 or tablespace_name = 'TREPD01';
TABLESPACE_NAME INITIAL_EXTENT/1024NEXT_EXTENT/1024 PCT_INCREASE
------------------------------ ------------------- ---------------- ------------ TREPD01 40 40 0 TEMP01 1024 1024 0
TREPD01 is where the tables are located, TTEMP01 is the temp tablespace.
