Hi

Check if the connect string you are providing exist in the tnsnames.ora file. If not then add it.

If it exists then you might be having multiple oracle home, in that case find out the oracle home which Rapid SQL use it and add the entry there.

If not above then please post the tns entry.

I'd say: stick to SQL*Plus and/or your other interface.
I have no clue what Rapid SQL pretends to be (and I don't want to know) but check:

http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/network.102/b14212/troublestng.htm#CEGJAGGH
But anyway: I'd just stick to the SQL*Plus prompt.
Or download SQL Developer for free from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/sql/index.html
