Generating CREATE TABLE statements

[Jack Miller]

Hi,

Is there any SQL command in Oracle that returns a "CREATE TABLE"
statement in Oracle. For example in MySQL there is a command called

"SHOW CREATE TABLE <tableName>"

This command can be sent from any client and it returns the script for
the table.

Thanks
