Put the following in your config.ora file:

FORMS40_PATH=HD:ora_apps:

Where HD is the name of your hard drive and ora_apps is a folder on the hard drive. There can be no enbedded blanks in the names (bug should be fixed in 4.0.13). See page A-3 in your Oracle Forms for Machintosh Installations Guide for further details.
