I am just converting from ORACLE on Unix to Oracle on Windows. I often use telnet connections to my database servers to run sqlplus locally. On my unix boxes I choose which instance to connect to by changing my ORACLE_SID parameter. How do I do this from a command line in Windows? The only way I can think of is creating a batch file that inports a registry change and changes the ORACLE_SID values in the appriopiate ORACLE home. Is there no better way?

hello,
b4 starting the database u can say
set oracle_sid=sid_name at the command prompt.
or else
go to regedit -> hkey_local_machine ->
get into oracle corner
and set the oracle_sid parameter to u r database name... search for my posting in the oracle server forum.
