Curt:

SHOW displays the value of a "feature" of SET (SET turns a SQL*Plus feature ON or OFF or to a certain value). TABLE is NOT a valid SET or SHOW feature. Once connected to your data base see if the following command will work:

select table_name from user_tables ;

The result set will show all the tables created in your schema (schema = the usercode you used to connect to the data base). Hope this helps.
