We do not depend on search paths to run our applications. For each application, we put ALL necessary files (*.FMX, *.MMX, *.PLL, *.RDF, etc.) in a single directory for that application. We then have the Windows icon declare that directory as the starting directory. This allows all files to be find, and the version specific to that particular application, since the current directory is always search first.  

We currently have all our applications using the same "point" release of Forms 4.5, so they all use the same setting for [CDE] FORMS45 and RW25.  

The only "custom" information we put in ORACLE.INI are the SQL*Net v1 aliases:  

  SQLNET DBNAME TEST=T:1.3.4.5:TSTDB
