I have no idea what the codes in the .fmt files mean. On the other hand, I have written a quick-and-dirty "C" program that will parse a Forms v4.5 txt file listing the objects, reference info, object info, class info, all PL/SQL code, and LOV information.

Visit my home page (http://www.infinet.com/~ktoepke) to get the code and some example output.

Hope this helps.
