just installed oracle 9i client onto my home pc. im taking a database class and we're using oracle, however the book comes with all the data and the program to build the database we're using for our class project.

so i've installed oracle 9i client, and i know how to create an account (though i dont really know how to apply the proper rights, etc) however, i can't log in to SQL plus because there is no account set up for me. so i cant access anything.

can someone smarter than me please explain how you set up an oracle user on a local machine like this when there are no accounts set up?

i have a project due monday, and getting this set up here will allow me to use dual monitors while i work and save me alot of time in the school computer labs.... can i get some help asap, please:)

thanx! i really appreciate your help
