No problemo mate! :-)
Btw, I looked this up at Metalink.
Unfortunately I cannot distributed my login // pwd or my company could loose his oracle support.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to post them!.

I have thought a bit about Q1:
I think that is related to IE.
Login as Administrator
goto the dos prompt

cd "Documents and settings"
cd "<user>"
cd "Local Settings"

delete "History" & Temporary Internet Folder

and reboot.

You have also be carefull with the directory you put your forms in!! Make sure that there are NO spaces tabs or other control characters in..
Otherwise you will bump into another 9000 error.

And thirdly, if you wish to use the forms in another language, like me, in Dutch.

Go to the register,
Go the Oracle Home of Forms
Add or adapt the NLS_LANGUAGE parameter Reboot is prefferred.

Fourthly,
To work convienently with menus, you have to set the correct path to your forms directory:

Register
Oracle Home of forms
Add or adapt the following parameter: forms_path edit the key and reboot (always be on the safe side)

forms_path => c:\oracle.....\;c:\my_forms_directory
