Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> ORACLE_SID and Windows NT
Hello,
A ProC software connects to an oracle database on a windows NT machine.
The software and the database are running on the same machine. So SqlNet is
not installed.
For the moment, the software uses the registry key ORACLE_SID.
It works fine because there is only one database running on the server.
In the case of two databases the ORACLE_SID registry key points on one of
the
two databases at the same time.
My question is :
How can I do to make the software connect to the database without using the
ORACLE_SID registry key ?
If possible, a solution without installing SqlNet.
Thanks
