QUESTION POSED ON: 29 November 2005
I am new to Oracle and have one simple question regarding data export. Will the column headers be exported along with the data?

>
In Oracle, the export utility exports data in an internalized format that the import command understands. If you want to extract data, use the SQL language to create your files. If you do a Google search on Oracle data extract you should find many user-provided routines for this.
