We are in the process of converting our Forms 6i modules to Forms 10g. We are still very early in the process, and I am now trying to test some of the converted forms on my workstation. When I run a start form from Forms Builder it works fine, but when I try to open another form from my start form I get the error message FRM-40010: Cannot read form. I am using the command OPEN_FORM for this operation.
I am trying to follow the description in the course manual for the Move to the web course. Under the title Defining Forms Environment Variables for Run Time the manual says:
Forms searches the following paths in order until the required file is found:
- The current working directory
- Directories in FORMS_PATH
- Directories in ORACLE_PATH
The form I am trying to open is located in the same directory as the start form. I regard this as the working directory, so I don't understand why I can't find the form at runtime. I have also tried to include this directory in the FORMS_PATH entry in the default.env file in addition to the registry entry. And I have tried upper and lower case. I have also tried to attach the extension .fmx, but then the whole stops responding, I don't even get an error message, and I have to stop it manually.
Is there something else I am missing here?
Regards,
Sveinung
