Did you try "tnsping connect_string" from a command line? This may help you identify your Oracle Home.

In my case below, I just want to know which tnsnames.ora file I am using. There are many tnsnames.ora files in this server and I was able to try each to figure out the one I am using. But this is not the right way to get the answer ...

That's just my experience so far.

As I am learning Oracle in the Windows environment, I noticed that I do not have to set ORACLE_HOME. Am I missing something? Thanks!
