Question

Getting ready to clean up some old tables which are no longer in use, but I would like to be able to archive the contents before removing them from the database.

Is it possible to export the contents of a table to a file? Ideally, one file per table.

Answer 1

You can use Oracle’s export tool: exp

Edit:

exp name/pwd@dbname file=filename.dmp tables=tablename rows=y indexes=n triggers=n grants=n
