Well, it *is* Forms 4.5 against 9iRel2 (I would advise to
patch the database to 9.2.0.4 or higher).
The main (Forms) applictatio is against this 9.2 oracle?
If so - no problem (could it be you still use a V8/V8i
listener?).
Not faniliar with the forms patches, but the baseline is a
V7 tool (using a V7 network stack), and that is incompatible:
a V7 network stack will create errors, if it connects at
all, against V9.2 database. It's not upwards compatible, you
know, and V7 tools worked against 8iRel3, that's 5 releases
(8 and 8i - even 9iRel1?) at least.
