  3. Select the address tab to delete, and click ”X”.

  4. Choose Save Network Configuration from the File menu to save changes to TNSNAMES.ORA in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin on UNIX or ORACLE_HOME\network\admin on Windows platforms, or choose Save As from the File menu to save under a different file name or path.
