The Tnsnames.ora can be a trick file to edit and get it correct. I have = learned by mistake that the only way to work on the tnsnames.ora file is = to use the supplied easycfg pgm or carefully use a valid editor not = windows editor.

Lyall,

Thank you. Yes, I guess I wasn't specific enough. I did do the updates = in the
manner that
you specified. I found the problem. If was in the format of the = SID_LIST in
the listener.ora
file. Someone added a new SID to the top of the list yesterday and didn't = put
in an extra
SID_DESC clause in between the SIDs. The listener was only recognizing = the top
SID in
the list. My SID got knocked out of commission.

It looked o.k. but with trial and error, I finally figured out that we = needed
the SID_DESC clause.

I hate it when it takes so long to fix a relatively minor problem like = that.
