Interesting question.
Forms 2.0/2.3 (ahh - happy days - remember editing the .inp file,
guys?)
Forms 3.0 - Ooooh - PL/SQL!
Forms 4.0 - Hmmmm, character-based 3.0 Forms implemented in Windows
(i.e. The Forms Builder issn't much different from 3.0, but the end
product is sort of Windows-ish, if you're very good)
Forms 4.5 - Aaaah ... nearly there - Object oriented (sort of)
Forms 5.0 - Hmmmmm ... not too much different - tabs, anyone?
Forms 6i - Much like 4.5 and 5, but web enabled (ooooh)
Forms 9i - Dunno, not seen it
I remember the good old days of Forms 2.0 on Oracle 5 on Unisys BTOS/CTOS - not many of us about!
