Colleagues of mine have encountered similar problems. Most robots are unable to read Forms or Java applications because they expect to read components but the Forms or Java GUI does not consist of components. What you see is merely painted in a window. The robot can therefore not read the components, unless you can make it analyse a bitmap picture to extract characters from it.
I do hope you get replies from Forms guru's (I'm the opposite of that) telling you that it *can* be done. Otherwise, don't shoot the messenger.

Good luck,
