On my laptop I have sort of copied the UNIX environment by creating an oratab file and a batch script that reads from it called setenv.bat. Only input required is the SID (setenv DB1, setenv DB2, etc etc). It also sets the dos box window name to whichever environment it is and sets the service name for the oracle service. The bat file sits somewhere in the path.

i:\temp>setenv db1
i:\temp>net start %SERVICE%
The OracleServiceDB1 service is starting. The OracleServiceDB1 service was started successfully.
