[Quoted] [Quoted] I am developing applications with Oracle*Forms 4.5.5.6 (version 1.2 of Dev2k). In earlier versions, I used a standards form and put all the objects I wanted to reference into an Object Group. Whenever I started a new form, I simply dragged the Object Group into the new form and indicated I wanted to Reference it (as opposed to Copy). This worked fine, and even saved a lot of tweaking when upgrading to Dev2k 1.2.

[Quoted] In working with Dev2k 1.2, however, I am having a world of trouble with the references in the new forms getting screwed up. Some get lost, others get the mis-named, etc. Has anyone encountered this and found a solution? I would like to know how to prevent the corruption, and also how to correct corruption once it has occurred. Dev2k usually GPFs when I try to delete the corrupt referenced objects.

I do a lot of forms work and really do not want to have to reference all the objects individually.

Thanks in advance for any help.
