I have encountered a problem in importing the dump file to a new database.

I have encountered a problem in importing the dump file to a new database.
When importing the dump file it requires a new tablespace which does not exist in the database.
To create the tablespace I need to hijack some scripts which is readonly.For this reason it is complicated to export the table structure through imp tool of Oracle so my colleage changed the dump file manually and it is able to be imported.
Is it OK to change the dump file manually in order to import the file if it is the quickest way?

    if are comfortable to change the dump file manually then it is fine, keeping that you are aware of the the complete structure of the .dmp file.

    i will suggest u to use data pump as it remaps the table space of the existing schema with the new one. and performance wise data pump is much faster then normal dump.
