Hi All,
Is there any way to estimate the space required for a table given number of rows and average byte length per row.

Thanks in advance

Re: Space required for a table

You'll find information in the 'Physical Database Design' Chapter of Administration Guide ...

If the table is already created, you can use the 'Estimate Size' in the drop down menu when you right-click on the tablename...

Cheers
