I am trying to execute a script, it gives me the error
SP2-0640: not connected
I then select to connect, type in my username, password, service, and select SYSDBA as the connect. I then get the error
ORA-12505: TNS:listener does not currently know of SID given in connect descriptor.
I checked my tnsnames.ora file and it is listed in there, what else can I do to fix this?

Thanks for your help
Katie

the error message is self explanatory.

check if the target database is up and running.
