I have a school project where I have to make a small database application using Oracle Forms.

I have 4 forms in my application:

  1. A login form
  2. A main form
  3. A form that is displayed after the new button is pressed on the main form
  4. Another form that is displayed after the edit button is pressed on the main form.

I've created the forms in the mentioned way.

When I start the application, I want the login form to be the starting form. Now what starts first is the edit form (the last one created).

How can I manage that?

Thank you.

The form loads that canvas first which holds the first data block in the Object Navigator. So make sure that your login form block is first on the list.
