BME WROTE>>you dont know SQL plus is platform independent and codes written in Windows platform needs to be recompiled if used in Unix server.. My question wasn't if SQL plus is platform independent and code should be recomplied in unix or not. my question was "How do you develop forms in real world?" if your database is on Unix (any flavor)... My question was particularly asked to Oracle on Unix users. Thanks to gbs for answering. I got the answer from gbs... f60gen is the way to go:) As I've only used Oracle DS oracle form builder, i didn't know about other tools used.. My second question was "how you write PL/SQL" I know unix users don't use that pseudo-GUI SQL*plus that runs well on windows. GBS answered you can use VI editor or you can start console version of SQL*plus by typing OS>sqlplus. In fact I know i just found out we could use my favorite unix LINE editor to write PL/SQL. >>Coming to Sajha with such questions doesnt help you in your quest,you need to go to otn and other websites or to class. you already saw how well somebody answered my question. I am attached with sajha and I still think sajha amongst one of best place to pose your question. Dude, I have long histroy with sajha, more than 7 years:) I also advise you that you ask question to your own sajhaits if you have any problems:) NO MORE tug-of-war:)
