hello sir

we are using oracle application server.

i want to delete or overwrite .FMX file
while they are in use.

waiting for users to logout or finding
out which user is logged in..is too time
consuming.

Thanks for your kind help in advance.

I don't know what the question is, but in a unix environment, you can delete or overwrite .fmx files even when they are in use.

i am on windows dear...users are connecting to server
and accessing forms ie. .FMX files.
but when i update any form,compile it and try
to place it on the server..its says FILE IN USE.

so i want to avoid that message.

even if the users are using that particular .FMX
i must be able to paste the updated .FMX.

thanks.

I don't believe you can - windows doesn't work that way.

Actually, that *might* be possible (didn't try it myself, just read about it) by setting FORMS_MMAP = FALSE in DEFAULT.ENV file. Have a look at this OTN forum discussion; there are references to Metalink documents. Everyone says that setting that parameter is not recommended. Anyway, read it yourself.
