This is a very easy question. 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!?
