use this...

set_window_property('frm_mdi_window', title, 'Your title');

This will work.

Are you talking about Oracle logo? If so, edit the FORMSWEB.CFG file and set

# Watermark: 
Background=No
# Oracle logo:
Logo=No

Please read the documentation for 'pre-form' and read the 'Usage Notes'. The preferred trigger is the 'When-New-Form-Instance'.

To change the window title also look at the window's property 'title' in the Forms Builder.

To 'fix' the form look at the properties available to you on your 'window' in the Forms Builder.

1) Change the title on the 'window' in your form.

2) No idea. I'll think about it later when you post your graphic as a JPG.

3) Set the 'Console Window' to 'null'.

And I said "Change the title on the 'window' in your form". That means open the form in the Forms Builder, go to the window in the 'Object Navigator' and in the 'Property Palette' change the sodding 'title'.

Please find attached an image of my Forms Builder and the running 'test_2' form.

You did do a Ctrl-Shft-k (Compile All) and Ctrl-t (Generate) didn't you?

Please post a screen shot of your running form. Please make sure that you do it as a JPG file.

You might as well post your form as well.

sams,

Please find below images of your form as it ran in Forms 10g and Forms 6.0.

Please verify that you do not have any other forms named 'sample' in the directories that exist in your FORMSnn_PATH. Try renaming your form to something completely different and then compile, generate and run it.

Did you try the "set_window_property('frm_mdi_window', title, 'Your title');" command in the when-new-forms-instance trigger. Because if you didn't, it really should have been "set_window_property(forms_mdi_window, title, 'Your title');".

Open up the 'formsweb.cfg' file, do you have separate sections at the bottom of your file for each of your applications? If you do then change the 'webformsTitle=' line to your desired text.
