I believe the system uses the server side TNSNAMES.ORA not your client TNSNAMES.ORA. The repository db sets up a temporary dblink to the source db that you are trying to reverse engineer. In order to accomplish that the repository instance's TNSNAMES.ORA has to have the connect string/SID entry that it can resolve. The solution is to edit the TNSNAMES.ORA that the Designer Repository instance has access to. Hope that helps.
