I have Oracle 8 (Personal Edition) installed in my PC having WinME as the OS. Also I have installed Forms6i. Now in order to connect to Oracle using SCOTT/TIGER, what should I provide in the Database field ? TNSNAMES.ORA file is blank.

you can connectect without adding any thing to tnsnames file
by leaving the filed blanck
also if u want to make your service name
you can add the the folowing text

(put any name) =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(COMMUNITY = tcp.world)
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = 127.0.0.1)
(Port = 1521)
)
)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = "the name of the database")
)
)
