Rick:
In tnsnames.ora, is the entry listed as "satt.world" ? If so, then check the sqlnet.ora file, to see if there is a line names.default_domain = world

Just a shot in the dark,

Hi All,

NT 4/Oracle 8.1.6

I can do a tnsping satt. The entry is in tnsnames.ora. When I try to connect using sqlplus
I get ora-12514. This is a new installation. Everything is loaded on the same computer. It connects
fine without service name but for other reasons I want to connect using service name.
Any ideas?

Thanks
