Re: DB Config. Assistant
I assume you're talking about the dbassist tool. If it's working as on unix, you should find the log files in $ORACLE_BASE/admin/$ORACLE_SID/create. I prefer the old way, using scripts, this way I can rerun the scripts for all the different environnements.

Re: DB Config. Assistant
Stefen: I have to apologize, I goofed. In dbca the final wizard window has an OK button at the bottom. It was below my lower screen edge and I didn't see it. So, I didn't press it and of course didn't create the DB. On my third time through the process I noticed this button, pressed it and 45 min. later had my DB. I went out on TOAD and there it is. It sure helps if you know what the heck you are doing. Ah Duh!

Re: DB Config. Assistant
Hi Ken, When you run the database configuration assistant (DBCA) it asks you to provide the sid for the database. You should be able to see the service associated with this database by looking at the "services". Don't know ANY XP but the service should be named "OracleServiceSID". Check to make sure that this service is started. If not you will have to start this service before you can connect. Assuming that it is started you can connect from a dos window by typing set oracle_sid="yoursid" sqlplus system/manager from here you should be able to query the dd tables.
