Urgent question about export/import

I just did a full export from Oracle7.
I want to import the entire dump file into Oracle8.

It is my understanding that Oracle exports the tablespace definitions as well.
But, how does it know where to create the datafile associated with the tablespace? The directory structure in Oracle7 instance is different from Oracle8 instance. For example, the datafiles in oracle7 may be c:\oracle\dbs,
but in oracle8, I want the datafiles to be in d:\orant\database. (I know it can be manually moved through alter database). How does import handles this initially during import?

Any help would be appreciated.
