thank you for the information i am able to open the form directly by giving the following at command prompt.
ifrun60 module=D:\apmc\ADDITIONAL_QUALIFICATIONS.fmx userid=scott/tiger@indus
i created a shortcut of the FMB (FORM) at desktop, and am giving .fmx in the above command. and in the shortcut properties for start in slot, i gave the path where the fmb is stored
my question is: where to give the above ifrun60 command so that my form will open when i click the shortcut?
i am able to call the report without performing the second step, ie, "The directory containing your report should be at the beginning of the 'REPORTS_PATH' entry in the register." (as i did not understand , all i could get was that i was to tamper the registers (OS files)).
Mod-upd: Get rid of superfluous carriage returns. Please read sticky about punctuation.

| The desktop or hot bar is always a good place to store commonly used shortcuts.
You solution works as long as you don't move the forms or reports to another directory and you have the FULL name in all your calls.

1-How to call a report from oracle form (Crystal report) or
2- Call an exe file from Oracle form with parameter passing
Can any one help me with this.

you could use "RUN_REPORT_OBJECT()" built-in for running the reports from forms.

I am using the forms Runtime to execute .fmx files.
For e.g.
C:\Dev6i\BIN\ifrun60.EXE module=d:\shares_deploy\main_menu.fmx
After the above command there appears a window asking for
Username, password and database.
What I want is that it should ask the username and password only
and take the database name as a constact.
I tried this but didnt worked
C:\Dev6i\BIN\ifrun60.EXE userid= / @db_name module=d:\shares_deploy\main_menu.fmx.
Can anyone help.
Thanks

I read that file , but it is not usefull
as I told you
when I do
userid= / @dbname
it gives an error, and then when I press OK then it comes
to login window and ask for username and password, the
database name is displayed as dbname by default.
What I want that it should not give an error first.
Thanks and Regards,

| Lose the spaces between the 'userid=' and the '/' and the '@' sign.
Use "userid=/@db_name", no spaces.
