Hi,

Does anyone know how to convert a 'static' filename
[Quoted] (e.g., "F:\Oracle\Forms\Test.fmb") into a UNC version of the filename
(e.g., "\\MyServer\Apps\Oracle\Forms\Test.fmb")?

One way would be to use the WNetGetUniversalNameA function (part of the mpr.dll library) which will involve all the usual problems associated with using the Foreign Function Interface in Oracle.

Does anyone know a quicker way of doing this conversion? I'm using Forms 6.0 against an Oracle 7.3.4 database.

Thanks!
