I am now using Forms 6i, but the application was originally built in Forms 6,
It appears my comment about no particular version may not be true, whoops!
However i have been informed that the problem may be related to the fact that the forms are compiled on Unix, and it could be a problem with using forms on Unix.
I am about to investigate this, by trying to recreate(yes it's an intermitant problem) on forms runtime, from form builder. Received on Fri Jan 25 2002 - 10:49:40 CET
