Re: Dev2000 ( forms 4.5 ) problem

My own follow-up -

For some reason the registry entries for ca_uprefs and ca_gprefs were missing - adding them and pointing to my Oracle_home solved the problem...( as to how it happened, ???? )

[Quoted] I am still interested if any of you have run both 4.5 and 5 versions of the Forms designer on the same client...

I really don't want to update all my run-time app users to 5.0 so I wil need to maintain the ability to modify existing 4.5 apps... can this be done ?

Thanks,
John Greco
