Did you try "tnsping connect_string"  from a command line?  This may help you 
identify your Oracle Home.

In my case below, I just want to know which tnsnames.ora file I am using. There 
are many tnsnames.ora files in this server and I was able to try each to figure 
out the one I am using. But this is not the right way to get the answer ... (I 
feel home when running Oracle in UNIX :)

running on the same server.

That's just my experience so far.

As I am learning Oracle in the Windows environment, I noticed that I do not 
have to set ORACLE_HOME.
Am I missing something? Thanks!
