Hi Erman,

I am loading data from flat files once per day. I am querying dba_segments to get the segment bytes. Is this value sufficient to calculate the table size? or should I take into account
colkumn overhead, row overhead, block overhead and PCTFREE , plus a couple of oddities with longs, lobs and strings longer than 254 bytes

Regards,

Roshan
