On NT you have two ways: 1. set Environment Varibale TNS_ADMIN
2. set registry value TNS_AMDIN (HKLM\Software\Oracle\HomeX) regards Volker Schoen E-Mail: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.inplan.de -----Urspr�ngliche Nachricht----- Von: Gurelei [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Montag, 7.

I'm usually working with Oracle on UNIX, but today I need to connect to a remote instance from my NT desktop. Is there an equivalent to TNS_ADMIN varaiable in NT? ( I'm trying to force Oracle to use a specific tnsnames.ora file on my machine adn TNS_ADMIN variable is the way to do it on UNIX.) thanks for any help Gene __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
