Hi,
I have Oracle 10g Express and I want to attach/restore database. I`m begginer in oracle so I know little about process of restoring/attaching databases. I have only DBF/ORA files, is it possible to restore them and how?
Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Ivan.

What do you mean by Attached??

From which version to which version you want to restore?

Well I`m comming from MS SQL and there if you have .mdf file you can attach database, if you have .bak file you can restore database. So I`m not sure what does it mean if I have .dbf file .. can I restore or attach database ...

Thanks,
Ivan.

not only .DBF you must need controlfiles...redologs files..pfile/spfile...password file.
if you have all thses files then you can run your database.
