    Thumbs down

    Hi,

    I have created one database (TestDB) and user also. I have given all the permissions to the user to access the full database. I am able to view the tables and data through wizard. But I am unable to access through sql plus. It says invalid username/password. I don't understand where I did the mistake. Could anybody help me. suggestions are appreciated.


    thankx

    simply that you're not connected anymore, but if you don't answer the questions we ask you, there is no way to help you ...

    That normally means you entered an invalid SID

    Ok, do you think you could of type the Password wrong?

    Also in the username type

    emp@SID

    then type the password.
