Is it modeless forms you are looking for (as opposed to modal ones)? Google for more information, check this for a short description.

For me it opens them all up, but each in a different instance of Forms Developer.

10.1.2.0.2 also.

It probably has something to do with the way Windows is set up rather than the way Forms is set up.

Well, if nothing is happening at all (I do not know what "it doesn't work" means), then maybe you don't have the .fmb files associated with Oracle Forms.

"it doesn't work" means not opening multiple Forms by selecting multiple .fmb files within Explorer, instead it opens First selected from that multiple selection when pressing Enter key.

.fmb files are associated correctly as it opens first selected file when pressing Enter key.

hope this is clear.
