[Quoted] [Quoted] I am just taking a look at Oracle Developer/forms after being away for a long time - I can't remember the last Forms version I've used in anger- 2 or 3 I think. I am very rusty!

[Quoted] [Quoted] Anyway, I've just installed 10g and got developer working and I see everything seems to be "client/server" based.
[Quoted] I've built and run a simple form which runs itself in an IE browser.
My question is, is this the only way Forms works now? For instance, can you [Quoted] compile a form into an executable and run it directly against the database [Quoted] [Quoted] in a similar way as you might build say, a C++ graphical application with ODBC calls?
[Quoted] If so, how?
It seems to me this might provide quicker access - or at least startup.
