	| Ravi, Let me explain the same in short simple sentences
 
 1. Forms dont get converted into any applets. Forms remain at the fmx executables in the middle tier. (Fmb is the uncompiled format in which they are shipped)
 2. The applet architecture used by oracle apps forms interface is not a truly thin client. Its thick, in that you have to download jar files locally which will help create the interface.
 3. .fmx isnt converted into .class and .class isnt shipped to desktop. .fmx remains in the middle tier, jar files (containing classes and a host of interface related information) are sent to the pc and its through these local jar files that the .fmx is seen by the user on his pc.
 
 Let me know if you need further clarification.
 Cheers..
 cherio.
