There is another way to handle this situation. You may create an

oraenv_SID.bat file and put some settings like following to login to right database using right oracle home. It is quite helpful if you are managing more then one database and/or with mutiple oracle homes.

set ORACLE_HOME=c:\oracle

set local=ORCL ---entry from tnsnames.ora file

set ORACLE_SID=ORCL

You may run this file on dos command and then login to that database.

If you have multiple ORACLE_HOME locations on a Windows server you'll also have the Oracle Home Selector at Start->All programs-> Oracle Universal Installer -> Oracle Home Selector. This sets the ORACLE_HOME in the registry to point to one of the valid locations Windows knows of. It will also tell you which home you're currently using by simply starting it.

In my case below, I just want to know which tnsnames.ora file I am using. There are many tnsnames.ora files in this server and I was able to try each to figure out the one I am using. But this is not the right way to get the answer ... (I feel home when running Oracle in UNIX :)

As I am learning oracle in the windows environment, I�ve noticed that it usually only matters if you have more than one oracle database instance up and running on the same server.

That�s just my experience so far.

As I am learning Oracle in the Windows environment, I noticed that I do not have to set ORACLE_HOME.

Am I missing something? Thanks!
