Hi, I have created a database link between oracle 7.1.6 and oracle 8.1.6 I am running sqlforms3.0 from oracle 7.1.6 and accesing the database of oracle 8.1.6. I am encountering the following error when i am running the form "FRM-40505: ORACLE error -- unable to perform query". The error is execute_query is unable to fetch the records from the work table.If I substitute the execute_query with the select statement i dont have any problem. Can anyone throw some light on this???????? Regds, Rajashekhar __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Get email at your own domain with Yahoo!
