Forms 6i Setup

Hello All,

We are in the process of upgrading from 11.0.3 to 11.5.10 and now need to use Forms 6i instead of 4.5 to edit a couple of forms. In the past, I was able to ftp the fmb file over to my local machine, and place any attached PLL files or FMB files in the orant\FORMS45\PLSQLLIB directory so they were found when the file was opened.

Apparently this is not the case anymore. Can anyone give me a brief explanation of the best way to set this up on 6i, or at least guide me to the proper documentation? I've yet to find anything beneficial.

Sincerely,
XOracle

So I see in the registry where:
FORMS60_PATH=C:\orant\FORMS60;C:\orant\TOOLS\OPEN60\PLSQLLIB

I copied all of the attached FMBs into C:\orant\FORMS60, which fixed that issue, but I'm still having trouble with the PL/SQL library files. I have copied such files as APPCORE.pll to both of the above directories as well as the directory of the form in which I am currently working. I am also connected to the database, but still receive an:

FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library APPCORE. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.

Any thoughts on what I am still doing wrong?

Thanks again,
XOracle
What happens if you attach APPCORE.pll to your form once again (remove path), close the form and open it ?
I would recommend also compile all libraries.

That did it. I went ahead and copied the entire PLL library over into the path that jwahl led me to and all is good. Thanks to all for your assistance.
