1. connect to the database,
2. startup mount
3. Get the Path and Size of the missing datafile
( you can get infn from >> bdump[[SID]]ALRT.LOG )
4. Create the datafile - alter database create datafile 'pathtools.dbf' as 'pathtools.dbf' size xxx reuse
(Make sure that the path and size are the same as step 3)
5. If the file is offline, then bring in online - alter database datafile 'pathtools.dbf' online;
6. Recover the database - recover database
7. recover will prompt for log file as shown below,

Specify log: {<RET>=suggested | filename | AUTO | CANCEL}----provide the appr. files,
8. open the database--alter database open

It will help you a lot........

Better to back existed database first before do any recovering. For your information, you are only able to recover before missing archive and you will lose some data.
