Re: Running forms 6i on client

[Quoted] [Quoted] If your going to run this in client server mode, then you have to have forms [Quoted] runtime loaded on each machine you are going to run it on. Then go to [Quoted] regedit and find out where your forms60 path is. You can change it to the directory of your choice(Id recommend doing this). Put your .fmx ones in there. You can run the form by just clicking on it.

[Quoted] To connect to the database you need to have your network set up properly... [Quoted] not my area sorry :(. Your gonna have to load some of the oracle database [Quoted] software on your machine. Dont know how much. Its probably pretty easy to find out in the documentation. You will also need to configure the database [Quoted] you are going to run it against as a server and setup your NET8. There is a [Quoted] book on this out there that is pretty decent, but there is a document on [Quoted] technet that will tell you how to do it.

Docs Id suggest...

Forms Server http://otn.oracle.com/doc.pdf/forms/p4_deploy60.pdf

This is long and you dont need to read it all.

The NET8 documentation on technet. Dont know what else. You will have to set [Quoted] up a few files also.
