Depends on what you are trying to do and what standards you have set.

Libraries are useful for Forms-specific code, including Forms built-ins and of which you want the code to be shared over more than 1 Form.

Program Units are useful for Forms-specific code which isn't shared but created for the current Forms module only.

Database objects are useful for database operations the database handles it the fastest, and you won't have as much network trafic. Might I suggest that you'd better call database procedures through libraries (if anything changes you won't have to change each and every form)?

So "best" is a relative term here.
