    Hi,

    To make a registry entry:

    1. Click Start;
    2. Move to Run and click;
    3. Enter regedit as the program to run;
    4. Click OK;
    5. Click HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE;
    6. Click SOFTWARE;
    7. Go to ORACLE (make sure you're in the main ORACLE branch);
    8. From the menu, select Edit->New->String Value;
    9. Name your new string value TNS_ADMIN;
    10.From the menu, select Edit->Modify, and enter d:\orant\network\admin

    But ..... you shouldn't be in need of this parameter: assuming that your Oracle home is d:\orant, the search path for network configuration files defaults to d:\orant\network\admin when no TNS_ADMIN parameter exists (assuming the configuration files are not in d:\orant\bin).

    Good luck,

    Paul.

    Best regards,

    I agree with Paul. We have never had to place TNS_ADMIN in the Registry though we have added it to the Window's Environment Variables. Our Windows team pushed variable settings to the users so that a network drive location is used for the tnsnames.ora
    location. So we can make changes to one central located file and have the users pick it up on next use.
