Thanks. Actually, refreshing the browser still pulls up the same problem but if I take out the "9" or whatever bogus number appears, I get the correct page. Also, it never happens on the first time. That is, if I exit Oracle Forms and go back in, the first one always works. But if I make a modification and then do another execute form, I get the text again.
Not a big deal really-- at least I can just keep taking the number out. It's just an annoyance.
