We need to develop text based Forms 4.0 Applications in OS/2 (preferably) or Windows running against a Oracle 7.0 Server.

The short answer is: NO. You can approximate it in GUI using monospaced fonts and character grid spacing. I don't think there is an OS/2 version, we asked about it maybe 6 months ago and Oracle did not seem to know anything about such a thing.
