HI Bob,

Database now created although I have yet to create the logs for thread 2 I'll be back should I have anymore problems. After examining the alert log and trace files now looks as if the directory for the system tablespace had not been created so I feel an apology is in order for giving everyone the run around your pointers and suggestions have been very insightful.

Cheers,
