I have corrected the tnsnames file to... Actually, I just noticed that it is not "tnsnames.ora" but "listener.ora" which has the setting below (sorry).

  (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = DEVL)
    (ORACLE_HOME = VOL8:ORANW734) Vol8:oranw734\database is the actual location of the database files. I tried both
vol8:oranw734
and
vol8:oranw734\database

Then I tried:

    load exp userid=system/manager_at_devl

I still get:

    Oracle error 12154
    TNS could not resolve service name.

If I type

    TNSping devl
from my workstation, I get positive results.

I feel like I'm learning a lot, but not quite the right thing yet.
