Hi all -
I am trying to resize a datafile and have the following puzzler - I used the following query to get the list of tables that use this datafile and then use 'alter table ... move tablespace ....' to move the tables to another tablespace. Now the datafile should be empty as indicated by the query and OEM. But I looked at the file and the high water mark for the file is still pretty high ( it is lower than before though) and I can't resize it to the size I wanted.
My questions is - since I moved EVERYTHIG from the datafile, what could be in it that is holding me back?

select distinct a.object_name, a.object_type, a.table_space, a.ts_size  from reorg_table_map a, dba_extents b  where upper(rtrim(a.object_name)) = upper(b.segment_name )

   and b.file_id = 111

TIA Dennis
