Re: Personal Oracle8 - Help creating a new database.

At first, you must do many task except creating database area to create a database. For example, creating some tables, some user name, some environment values must be created at the creating a database.

These task is difficult to understand what it means and how it works, so you should create an some sql task file which is copied from the file that system installer used at installation, i.e. build???.sql in the directory of \orawin95\rdbms80\admin ( in case of Windows95 ). This file insists of creating database, creating some tables, and creating some environment values with other some files.

At last, you connect to the server internally, and type @build???.sql to run sql procedure.

You can access to the database after these procedure. (I think these procedure is one of the easy way to create a database.)

Good luck.
