I was successful by copying the tnsnames.ora file from the orwin95\network\admin\ directory to the orawin\network\admin directory. This is what it looked like after I was done.       

Tcp-loopback.world =
  (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =

        (ADDRESS = 


          (COMMUNITY = tcp.world)

          (PROTOCOL = TCP)

          (Host = harts)

          (Port = 1521)

        )

    )
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL)
    )
  )

"harts" is my computer name. I use Developer/2000 for Windows Version 1.2.  If you are using an upgraded version, use the "easy_config" utility to create the tnsnames.ora file for you. Also, when I log in, I do not use a connect string, I leave that block blank.

I hope this helps.
