stef, why not recompile the application against the new release? We have recompiled our applications pro*c, Forms, and ReportWriter with each release. Warning by default our 64 bit Oracle compiles all programs as 64 bit so we have to set a compiler option to make it compile as 32 bit. Otherwise you have to go through all your code and change pointers and maybe integers to reflect 8 bytes instead of 4.

If you do not have the source then it may well be past time to scrap the application.
