Hi!

I used WINDEMO.PLL / WINDEMO.DLL in Forms 4.5.6.0.7 and it worked just fine. After the installation of Forms 4.5.6.3.3 it stoped to work.

I have tried several ways to get it working, but with no success.

Finally I took the old WINDEMO.DLL from 4.5.6.0.7 and then it worked again!

There must be a bug in WINDEMO.DLL from 4.5.6.3.3. I have rapported the bug to Oracle Support, but I havn't heard from them yet...(it was some time ago...)
