What command do you use to create the db link?

	 
CREATE DATABASE LINK DEV01_MYDB
CONNECT TO  username
IDENTIFIED BY  password
USING 'MYDB.abc.xyz.com';

Whats the value of SERVICE_NAME parameter.

The only way I know is to change the string so it does NOT include the 5 characters "WORLD".

>Change the string where?
The string you just SELECTed.

If you do change it all existing DBLINKs will break.

>the global_name parameter in init.ora is set to true.
Alternatively you could change above to be false.
