It's been a while since I played with Forms, but...

I think that the module_access option is indicating where the module is *currently* and that to place the module into the database you use the 'insert' option. Also, I think that your module_type should be form if you're looking at an FMB file.

I don't think that you can upgrade and insert at the same time, so upgrade the file first and then insert it into the database. So, that could be:

ifcmp60 userid=blah/blah module=AGSD_IPS upgrade=yes upgrade_plsql=yes compile_all=yes batch=yes build=yes window_state=minimize

ifcmp60 userid=blah/blah module=AGSD_IPS insert
