Install SqlNet and Forms Runtime on any machine you want to run your application.
Create the database alias
Map the drive containing your app.
Create a shortcut for f45run32.exe (it is in the \ORANT\BIN directory) with the parameters:

c:\orant\bin\f45run32.exe formnamewithpath username/password_at_alias

The starter directory must point to your app's directory Received on Tue Sep 30 1997 - 00:00:00 CEST
