Also, how do I change the working directory?I need help with Oracle 10g for Windows. Anyone know how to open a terminal window?
A ';terminal window'; is a command prompt. On Windows, you can access this by going Start -%26gt; Run and entering ';cmd';. On UNIX systems, you have to start a terminal through whatever GUI they have (on Red Hat Linux, for example, you can get a terminal through Applications -%26gt; System Tools -%26gt; Terminal).
You change the working directory of a given terminal by issuing the cd - ';change directory'; - command. For example, if you were on the C:\ drive and you wanted to go to C:\Oracle , you would type:
cd Oracle
If you wanted to go up a directory, you would type:
cd ..
because .. means ';the directory above this';
You can also use a full path, so if you wanted to go from C:\Oracle to C:\WINDOWS\system32, you could use either of these:
cd ..\WINDOWS\system32
cd C:\WINDOWS\system32
On Windows, you can get more help on the cd (and other commands) with ';help cd'; and ';help';. On UNIX, you would use ';man cd'; and ';man sh';, because 'man' stands for 'manual'.
