Re: Deploying Forms 4.5 Application on a Local network

Create a shortcut (icon) for your application. Then in the propertied window  for that shortcut (or icon) enter the path of oracle (i.e., where oracle  forms45 executable is located) followed by the initial (or startup) form name.   It usually goes like this:
    n:\programs\win\orawin\bin\f45run.exe STARTUP.FMX  where

     n:\programs\win\ is where your oracle executables are located (on the  network, if that's where your executables are located).

     STARTUP.FMX is the startup or the first form in your application (.FMX is  optional, I suppose)

As for the log-on popup window, Oracle will handle that for you if you do not  include any username and password in your source file  (n:\programs\win\orawin\bin\f45run.exe). However, your users will have to  enter the username, password and the database they will be logging into.

Hope this helps!
