Forms 6i on Windows-2000, Oracle Server 9i
I have an existing Forms/Reports application that uses one currency, and I want to be able to re-use it on the same client PC but using a different currency.
Ideally I would like to over-ride the NLS settings in the client registry e.g. by doing an Alter Session set NLS_CURRENCY.
However, I've tried that and it doesn't work (it does not fail, but it seems to have no effect).
Is there a way to over-ride the NLS_CURRENCY?
If not, is there a way to create a new minimal Oracle_Home in the registry containing another NLS_CURRENCY value and make the entry Form get the appropriate Oracle_Home? The app does not need to run concurrently with both currencies.
Thanks!

Hi David, thanks for your reply.
This is running in client-server mode, so no Application Server is involved, and no configuration scripts, although if anyone can think of something a script can do that would help, I'd be glad to hear about it.
