forms_path is by default set but i checked it.It is correct and my all forms r resided in that directory.
In forms directory i created icons directory and put all the icons in that.By default icons r searched from forms directory as it is documentbase
I think above settings that i have done r right????????????
but still not working any other setting i have to do...

documentbase and codebase settings r done in formsweb.cfg
documentbase=forms directory (by default)
codebase=forms/java(by default)
i tell u what i am doing?????????
I created one simple form with one single button
in button property i done following settings
iconic=yes
icon filename=game (without extension)
i compiled form and then copied fmx along with gif icon in forms
directory
then i called the form through explorer
I am calling this from my system(clint) itself not uploading on server
I think this is sufficient to work the form on client machine
but bot working even i tried UI_ICON setting in regedit
Any more settings i have to do so that it can run on client machine...

ok.... this is a very good question. I have done this very very long time ago... so please excuse if the folder/file/link names are not exact.
If you are using Forms from 10g IDS... UI_ICON is NOT going to help. It does not function here.
These are the things you need to take care of...
1) ALL your ICONS should be in GIF (image) format. The image size does matter so if you have a button that is 18 x 18, the gif image should also be of 18x18 or less.
2) Unlike 6/6i, the name of the icon/image file in 10G IS case sensitive. so if you have given the name in the button property as "CLOSE" or "Close", change it to "close".
Now to the procedure...
1) Make a collection of all your gif icon files and zip it. If you are using WinRAR, keep the extension of the file as JAR. If you are using WINzip or Windows Compression, compress the file first and then change its extention to JAR.
2) Copy this file to the FORMS/JAVA folder of your IDS home.
3) Now we will have to make some changes in your IDS Forms Settings.
IF you have access to the Forms settings, go to the default settings. Add the icon.jar file to the "initial files"
This section you may have to do some trial and error testing.
The gist is this... you have to have a JAR file and you have set the Initial files variable to include this JAR file as well.
Hope this helps... when i get more precise info i will post it here.

Save the file and back it up.
2) Find C:\oracle\ora9i\j2ee\Oracle9iDS\application-deployments\forms\forms90web\orion-web.xml and edit it.
Duplicate one of the 'virtual-directory virtual-path' lines and make it read as below:
<virtual-directory virtual-path="/icons" real-path="R:\Casetrack\application\icons\gif" />
Save the file and back it up.

Verify your placement of the '/' on the two references to 'icons'.

I had tried many thing by reading many posts including those you recomend Martin, and I can´t make my icons appear in web. Look, what I have done:
--------------------------------------------------
Registry.dat:
default.icons.iconpath=icons/
default.icons.iconextension=gif
--------------------------------------------------
D:\DevSuiteHome_2\j2ee\DevSuite\application-deployments\forms\formsweb\orion-web.xml:
<virtual-directory virtual-path="/icons" real-path="C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC" />
--------------------------------------------------
default.env:
FORMS_PATH=C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\LIB;C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\FMX;C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC
--------------------------------------------------
formsweb.cfg:
imageBase=CodeBase (I have also tried with DocumentBase)
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,PIC.jar
(PIC.jar have all the .gif images that are in the file C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC)
--------------------------------------------------
forms.conf:
AliasMatch ^/forms/icons/(..*) "C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC"
--------------------------------------------------
Run>regedit (Oracle Register)
FORMS_PATH=C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\LIB;C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\FMX;C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC
UI_ICON=C:\FORMS\WORKPLAN_1\PIC
Now i dont´t know what is missing, the icons don´t appear. I will appreciate a lot your help.
Thanks in advance, and I respect a lot your concern is this posts.
