I tried to use a bean in my main screen. I have some links in main screen, which opens other forms. Our goal was when we recieve a message in port, we wanted to show a form on top of other existing forms. It does the job, if there is only main screen. But, when we open a new form [using call_form or open_form] whenever a message is recieved an error message is shown 'cannot navigate to main_screen'. Then we tried to close the socket before opening other forms. And, opening the socket from the new form. But, this was not successful either. Because, we were unable to stop the socket server from listening. Only way, we could do this by showing two consecutive messages. And, only after that, the socket stops listening! Any idea how to resolve the issue? My question is why the socket server is not stopping as soon as we call set_custom_property passing 'STOP_SERVER' ?
Thanks in advance.
In attach file i send my form

This is happening probably because you are using Oracle Forms for something that should be written in VB or Java or .Net. You know, one of those PC interactive, sits and waits all day for input to run across the screen thingys. Oracle Forms is not one of those sorts of application. It is a block mode processing system for handling serious data on different hardware platforms.
