Hi,
I used to use mysql databse, now I am new to Oracle, I just created a database called "majidDB" in Oracle8i using Database Configuration Assistant, a directory is created automatically after creation of the database : D:\Oracle\ORADATA\majidDB

1)How to find out from sqlplus what is the current database ?
2)and how to switch to another one ?
3)How to create users in my new database ? after creating users do I have to do something to allow them get connected from another machine ?
4)Do I need to create a tablespace for my new database, if so how to do it ?
5)How to create tables ?

Thank you your help is appreciated.
