Re: problem with 9i import

HI New2orcl,

My guess is that your $oracle_sid was set to point to oem when you did the import with is why it imported into that database. The only way to get it out is to log on to the oem database and drop each table.

To get it into the correct database set the oracle_sid and then do your import.

Good luck,
John
