I have oracle 8.1.7 forms/reports 6i all running on windows XP home PC with no problems at all.
to uninstall forms/reports6i you need to run the oracle installer and remove all installed items - forms and reports require 2 seperate uninstalls. you will probably then need to clear out all registry entries relating to oracle. Received on Tue Sep 28 2004 - 00:31:05 CEST
