Owen,
A Forms 4.5 FMT file is an ASCII text file. It basically goes
through the entire form, top to bottom listing properties and their
settings, triggers and their PL/SQL code, Attached Libraries, LOVs and
their properties, Program Units and their PL/SQL code, Record Groups
and their properties, etc.. It basically is the same as what you would
see if you opened FMB and looked at properties and PL/SQL for each and
every object in the Navigator window. They can be very useful, but
always make me wish there was a Windows version of the IBM Mainframe
TSO Editor where you could EXCLUDE all lines then only SHOW the lines
containing a particular word or group of words. Heck of a lot easier
than FINDing your way through a large text file.
Hope this helps,
Paul
