if the DOS command prompt doesn't work, try starting it at the services level.

Subject: RE: Are Oracle courses required for Oracle Certification now?
How do you startup & shutdown the database on NT/W2K ?
As I am able to, from the DOS Command Prompt
set oracle_sid=orcl
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdba
startup pfile=initorcl.ora or shutdown immediate
Just fine, at least with O 9.2

This is unfortunate or maybe just it's just an urban legend?
Hands on training, may it be $$$ or self taught at home is necessary. But
$$$ is
definitely not a requirement.
I use Oracle at work and do more Oracle at home for my certs. I am able to
log-in to Oracle on Linux and Solaris. Oracle WinNT/2K is another story
since
you cannot really use:
sqlplus /nolog
connect / as sysdba
startup
as you would on Unix. Maybe this is what ticked the instructor off - a bunch
of
Unix Oracle guys can't log into Oracle on NT?
