Dong,

What you need to do is alter the DEFAULT storage parameters for the tablespace that the table is created. If you do not specify storage clauses when a table is created, Oracle looks at the defaults for the tablespace. You can type something similar to:

ALTER TABLESPACE USER_DATA DEFAULT STORAGE (INITIAL 10K NEXT 5K); Good luck,
