LOV button order [message #321847]

I'm upgrading my company db from 8i to 10g

In all forms the LOV button ordering has changed from:

OK, cancel, Find

to:

Find, OK, Cancel

(see attached)

Any idea how this is controlled, I've checked Metalink which has proved fruitless, any help appreciated

Unfortunately, I wouldn't know the answer but - what's the difference? Users might be (kind of) confused for a day or two, and then they'll forget that button order was different than now.

The order may be different but is the 'active' button different?

Just tell them that "Oracle did a user interface analysis and it was found that the new order saves 7.3% of previous interaction time".

Please raise the 'file upload' issue in a new thread and post the code.

Ok, screen shot attached (previous file was too big)

this is a screen shot from our 10g environment, in the 8i environment the find button was positioned to the right of the Ok&Cancel buttons.

So the 'Ok' button is still the default button.

Sorry. You will have to change your doucmentation but the users' keystrokes are going to be the same.
