I'm new to SQL*Forms, and I'm having trouble right from the start. I'm trying to run it from an AT&T 6386 PC connected to a 486 UNIX box. The PC is emulating a 4410 via the TerraNova communications package. I've already run 'crt' which I assume uses .../crt/admin/4410.sql to create .../crt/admin/4410.crt. However, when I try to invoke SQL*Forms with "sqlforms30 -c 4410 user/password" I get this message:

No such device to application map 4410 in terminal resource file oraterm.r. Error initializing IAD application.

My $TERM is set to 4410. If I change my $TERM to vt100, and run "sqlforms30 -c vt100 user/password", I get into Forms, but the key mappings aren't completely correct. Some functions work, but others don't.

How can I get SQL*Forms to work properly on any terminal I want?

Another question: I just came across some stuff that talked about the "F12 model" How do I get this to work?

My DBA is out today, and I can't find any documentation to help me.
