Rafiq,
 Thanks.
 Absolutely, using par file has many such advantages (hiding username/password being one important other ;)

Kirti,

You are always helpful. Just to add further...

It is more easier to use export.par file where you can put query clause very

easily ie without back slashes like

query=" where invdate between '29-DEC-97' and '03-JAN-99'"

HTH, Regards
Rafiq

Note: Bob, this is for 8i and up....

Here is how:

exp scott/tiger tables=emp query=\"where job=\'SALESMAN\' and sal\<1600\"

When executing this command, Export builds a SQL SELECT statement similar to this:
SELECT * FROM EMP where job='SALESMAN' and sal <1600;

Can you elaborate how the querry option is done? The only individualized method of exporting (using exp)
  I'm familiar with is with

Tables=

thanks
