Hello,

I am using Oracle 9i enterprise edition on Win XP Professional. Right now the Database and all the services start when I boot windows, but since I use Oracle only every now and then to learn some SQL (so the only tools I really use are SQL Plus and sometimes the Enterprise Manager Console) I was wondering how I could prevent Oracle from automatically starting every time that I turn on my PC. I don't know what the different services are for, but I was wondering maybe I could set them to start manually...is this a good way to do it? In other words, is it possible to make Oracle start only by clicking on some icon, like I do with other applications?

Thanks
