Don't get me started. As on Oracle Forms book it is the best, or among the best and I have a copy on my bookshelf. That said ... I cringe every time I suggest it to my students.

Take a copy of the book, open to the index in the back and look up the following:

1. System variables
2. How to dynamically change a WHERE clause
3. Building data blocks based on procedures
4. Anything about deploying Forms applications or the Forms run-time.

And I could list hundreds of others. They may all be in the book but the index is totally inadequate to find them.
