Hi Igor, thanks for your reply.
Call me a bonehead... but I got nothing. What am I missing?

Lisa,
Try:
SET ORACLE_SID
You should get:
ORACLE_SID='your_sid'

Hi Rick,
I ran into this as well. I figured I didn't need a listener on my w2k box because everything was going to be local. However I couldn't connect via sqlplus gui without a listener (no listener error - maybe because I am specifying the sid). I guess it's just another difference between Oracle on windows and Oracle on Unix.
If I remember right (it's been soooo long) when you connect in Unix with the $ORACLE_SID as part of your env, you can do so without @. If you do it with the @, it looks for a listener. When connecting via a windows gui, you are specifying the sid. I'm guessing it's doing something similar to the @ in the background. The cmd window connects without the @ because it's in the environment.
By the way, how do you display an environment variable in Windows? I thought it was echo %ORACLE_SID%, but that doesn't work. Anyone?
Again I may be pre-coffee.

Subject: No TNSListner service after intall 8.1.7 on Win 2k
Hi All,
I did a typical installation of Oracle 8.1.7 on Win 2k. It appears to have
installed Ok. I can use srvmgrl -> create database -> etc.
However when I try to use worksheet I get no listner. I should not need one
from the server. Anyway the install did not create service
to start the listener. All other installs I have done on NT always created
a tnslistner service. This in my first install on Win 2k.
Anyone have any ideas on why service did not get created and how to correct?
Thanks
Rick
