Hi,

I am an Oracle newbie and had previous experience in SQL Server 7. I just managed to install Oracle8i 8.1.5 on Solaris 7 platform. I have several questions regarding how to use it: 1. how to create more databases? write scripts? Where scripts are executed? in SQLPlus? With what command? Do I need to modify ORACLE_SID or the SID is only used for the starter database? 2. what are the general tools to manage databases in Oracle? Is there some tool like SQL Server 7 Enterprise Manager which manages databases, user accounts and everything?

Much thanks,
Xiaocun Xu
