create database using datafiles from cold backup

OracleGuy777Jun 13 2010 — edited Jun 14 2010
hi,

I've been given a bunch of datafiles from a cold backup.

I have created my own database using the same DB_NAME as the original.

I now want to be able to attach these datafiles to my database. How do I go about? Do I need to start the database in mount mode so that the control file is open, then start adding these datafiles to the tablespace, and then open the database?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.
