    Theres no hard and fast rule to rebuilding indexes - why do you want to rebuild them? Go to

    http://asktom.oracle.com

    and do a search on index rebuilds - theres loads of good stuff written by Tom on the subject

    Does your local library in town rebuild there indexes regularly...I dont think so.

    Rather add indexing than rebuild on your tables.

    ...and follow the advice of Fraze to goto Tom

    Many Thanks,
    It's a simple query:

    Code:
    SELECT index_name FROM user_indexes
    MINUS
    SELECT index_name FROM user_indexes
