Thanks for the advice, but I just checked all 4 listener.ora files (9.2, 9.2, 10.1 adn 10.2) and it doesn't appear in any of them.
Thanks,
Jay

Jay,
Because of the error message you are receiving, "ORA-12500 (See ORA-12500.ora-code.com): TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process", instead of a listener problem, check for the following line in your tnsnames.ora file(s):
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
If you find the line, delete it or sometimes setting it to SHARED will work. I've encountered that same error message numerous times, a real headache.
