Im converting a form 6i to form 10g and trying to call a form within a form using new_form('NFORM'); but receiving following error from server FRM-40108:No such form. What am I missing to call a form located on the server in oracle R12?

Is NFORM located in a directory which is part of FORMS_PATH? If not, make it so.

If it is unix/linux, it is case sensitive.

Yes, when I FTP the form it is placed in the directory of all other forms in Oracle E-business suite.

Did you FTP a FMX (Forms executable)? FMBs are irrelevant in this context.

(You didn't comment Joy Division's objection. Will you, please?)

To answer Joy's comment, Yes Im using same case and Im uploading the .fmx file not .fmb.
Im told I should be using fnd_request.execute instead. Thoughts?

None. This is obviously Oracle Apps. terminology, and I know nothing about it. Sorry.
