            Utilities?  
              The import and export utilities of oracle provide a very 
              simple way to transfer data objects between Oracle databases. 
              These may reside on heterogeneous software and hardware platforms. 
              The exported data objects are extracted and written to an 
              export dump file. 
              The Import utility reads the object definitions and table data 
              from the dump file. 
              An export file is an Oracle binary-format dump file located on 
              disk or tape which can be transferred by using FTP or physically 
              transported. They can then be used with the Import utility to 
              transfer data between databases on a single system. The files can 
              also be used as backups in addition to normal backup procedures. 
              Export and Import utilities are now being replaced by Data 
              Pump Export and Import utilities in Oracle 10g.  Also readWhat are the use of Export and Import command?, What are the

            commands?, What is the difference between the SQL*Loader and IMPORT 
            utilities?..............
