Goal

A DataPump export does not export all the tables when a wildcard character "%" is used with parameter TABLES.

Example:

User1 has 3 tables called TABLE_01, TABLE_02 and TABLE_10. An export executed with the following parameters.


The same behavior does not happen on 11gR2 where the tables using wildcard are exported without problem.
