Rodd,

Thanks for the great info. This is good piece of info.

I need to know how I can use "oraenv" utility on unix machine. All the info. I need is 
for unix (sorry did not specify). Also I am trying to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH via a 
unix shell script, so I think I can do a "setenv $LD_LIBRARY_PATH". Is that correct?

Also I want to know, what is I dont set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH, then what happens, will 
the Oracle sqlplus session start? (Yes/No)? explain if you can...

Also can I do "oraenv $LD_LIBRARY_PATH" in my unix script?

Regrads,

Raja
