hi,
when migrating from forms 6i to 10g i hardcoded some paths for some required files c:\oracle\DevSuiteHome\forms\temp\tempxml.xml

But this is not an acceptable procedure as this code looses portability.this path completely different in development and production servers..

I want to read the forms path in the server i deployed and concatinate the remaining.can any one give me an idea how can i write this line

c:\oracle\DevSuiteHome\forms\temp\tempxml.xml by replacing c:\oracle\DevSuiteHome\forms with a variable which reads from environment file.

Hi,

It is better to keep one table for storing these type of parameters.

for exaple a table with two fields CODE,VALUE
values like
CODE : PATH
VALUE : c:\oracle\DevSuiteHome\forms

whenever you wants PATH you can get it from your table and append the file name.

What's wrong with puting the directory in 'forms_path' and just call the form by name?

this issue solved by creating the directory dynamically in forms_path and with the name of the session id and then deleting it once its gets transferred back to the client..
