It depends.
The process could be as easy as just recompiling
using the 9i (R1 or R2) utilities or MANY changes
might be needed. It depends upon which constructs
were used in the 6i objects. The sad reality is
that a number of the 6i BUILTINs are no longer
supported in 9i. The only way to know for sure is
to install 9i & run a batch job to compile all
your existing forms & reports and check the results
for errors.
FWIW - I'm supporting both 6i C/S & 9i webforms
from the same code base. HOWEVER, some changes
were required to obtain compatibility between the
two versions.
