RE: Scripts for creating Tables/schema's

To recreate an existing schema, export the schema with rows=n. Then run import with show=y and send the output to a file. On metalink, you can get the following awk script to parse the file and send the output to another file. You will probably have to hand edit the final file to fix some line formatting errors (like a line break where there should not be).

  awk ' BEGIN { prev=";" }

/ \"CREATE / { N=1; }
/ \"ALTER / { N=1; }
/ \"ANALYZE / { N=1; }
/ \"GRANT / { N=1; }
/ \"COMMENT / { N=1; }
/ \"AUDIT / { N=1; }

        N==1 { printf "\n/\n\n"; N++ }
        /\"$/ { prev=""
              if (N==0) next;
              s=index( $0, "\"" );
                      if ( s!=0 ) {
                    printf "%s",substr( $0,s+1,length( substr($0,s+1))-1 )
                    prev=substr($0,length($0)-1,1 );
              }
              if (length($0)<78) printf( "\n" );
              }'

You might want adjust the storage parameters too. If you are using vi (Remember: vi is your friend) you can do this quickly with something like:

:%s/INITIAL [0-9][0-9]*/ INITIAL 1M/

Of course, all this assumes you are on a Unix box.
