Dear database gurus out there,

Not sure if this thread has been discussed before but I dont seem to be able to locate any when i do a search.

Can any gurus kindly tell me the followings:

1) I have just installed Oracle 9i ver 9.2.0 into a Window XP Server. Everything went smoothly so this is not an issue.

2) I have to restore the DBF files, how am i going to restore the data to the database? Can anyone show me the process?

3) Actually these DBF files were copied from another XP server. I have stop the Oracle services and zip up the file and move it to the new XP server. So I was thinking how do i create the control files?

I'm kinda stuck here so would really appreciate some form of help here. Many Thanks.
