I agree with Igor! ;-)

well, Paula...

you have MISSING datafiles because they are registered on your data dictionary and they were not included in your backup controlfile file at the moment of recreating the control file.

You can, re-attempt:
alter database backup controlfile to trace

include ALL you datafiles (name and path)... and then... you can drop, rename or whatever you want!
