Hi Bill,

I know Or. forms and reports, and these are web-based. Is apex better than oracle forms? A friend of mine were working with Or. forms and he said that "Or. forms is so primitive thing".

>>>You could use Oracle Application Express. It is a free tool from Oracle that allows you to create a web-based application. Details can be found here:

>>>If you are installing this on Oracle Database Express then let me know and I'll send some instructions that I put together on how to do this.
