Answer
Good day

In order for you to perform the importdo it using command line, in this case, MS-DOS command.  

The import command is "IMP" which is located in your Oracle bin directory.  

The command to perform the import is as follows:

C:\> IMP <username>/<password>@<oracle_sid> file=c:\kum.dump

If you need more information, you can type "IMP -?" in the command line.  Or you can use the interactive mode by typing "IMP" in the command line, it will step you thru the import process.

Hope it helps.  If you shall have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Elliot
