Use the 'Database Assistant'. Its real easy. You can choose custom to
specify size and tablespace names for the database. Then add users
under srvmgr30. Now, as a second note, NAV80 appears to be hardwired to
the tablespace names of the default instance. So, you may want to use
those names in your new database as well (USER_DATA vs USR, for
instance). To change ORACLE_SID, that's stored in the registry under (as
I recall) hkey_local_machine/software/oracle. You cannot change it as an
environmental variable (as in UNIX), you must edit the registry (or use a
short registry patch which you edit) to change the SID. Finally, you can
use NET8 with the 'bequeath' type to create a connection to the database.
