I have 3 procedures in my user with the same name and parameter at
backend (SQL)
front end (Developer 2000)
and
Libraries(Developer 2000)
My question is which procedure will fire first
and what is the order of the execution of the procedures.
Regards

Hi,
when you will try to create a new procedure with same name and same parameter , oracle will give error.
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object
Please let me know if i am wrong

Well, you are..eurr..sort of... . In a pure database environment: you're right. No doubt. You should use packages btw, always...
But we're talking 'bout Forms here. You can create a database procedure prc$my_first, create a procedure in Forms with the same name and parameters and even create one with the same name and parameters in any library you attach. The order of execution is then as follows:
First Forms'll look for the procedure in the program units of the form module.
Then Forms will look at the libraries to see whether one contains a corresponding procedure. If more than one library contain a match, the first is taken. So the order of attaching the libraries is important.
Finally, if there's no match. Forms seeks the database for a match.
