C:\>imp

Now, when i query from the sys user, i dont find any object with the name invoice_contents.
Can any 1 help me out of the above problem.
Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

The import seems OK, but it also seems that no rows have been imported, maybe no tables. What is the result of :
SQL> select owner, table_name from dba_tables where table_name like '%INVOICE%';
BTW, is the name invoice_content or invoice_contents ?
If the query does not give result, then try to check the content of your dmp file
C:\> imp user/password@db file=invoice_content.dmp full=y show=y
